View Full Version : Gum in school
Camillian 03-25-2003, 07:38 PM Next time you should tell your teacher you should be able to chew gum in school. Because I read in the newspaper , my techer told me and, from other people it's good for your brain and helps you think and concentrate better.
brownsocks 03-25-2003, 07:42 PM hahaha i can chew gum in school:D
*Pleasant Tomorrow* 03-25-2003, 07:43 PM lol most ppl in school do anyways, and some teachers even let you. I don't get why not. It's really not a big deal. Our library is SO bad with that. They're afraid it might fall outta our mouths and get stuck in the books. One of my friends got a detention just for having gum in there. Seriously though, we're not that stupid...we can keep a piece of gum in our mouths. Fools...:rolleyes:
Mr. Stefani 03-25-2003, 07:44 PM they dont care if we do or don't.

Uh.....can you please post that article or at least give the newspaper it was in?
We're allowed to chew gum anyway so :p.
AllIWantIsYourClutch 03-25-2003, 07:47 PM I can in most of my classes. I recently realized that its not a good idea to do it in the computer lab....my english teacher made me throw away my last piece of gum. *sobs* Yah. But the teachers who don't let yoo are the ones who are more concered about their furniture/floors than anything else.
Camillian 03-25-2003, 07:47 PM it was a bout 2 years ago I found it in a newspaper. But my teacher told me that last year.
Georgia's on my Mind 03-25-2003, 07:48 PM gum/food/candy is not allowed in class, and if the teacher catches you...you can be written up

i can too
Dammit 03-25-2003, 07:59 PM the main reason gum/candy is not allowed in most schools is bc students have no respect for things that aren't theirs. They will put gum under the desks or chairs just bc they are too lazy to put it in a trash can. They will leave trash in the desks. Its incredibly immature, and the main reason whey most schools don't allow it. If y'all would grow up and act a little bit more mature about it, you would probably be allowed to eat/chew it.

True. Kids ARE like that. I would never do that, though. It's really stupid when you have a freakin garbage can right there...
Mijada 03-25-2003, 08:03 PM When I was in Middle and High School they didn't care if you chewed gum. Gum chewing was not allowed in Elementary school though because some kid choked on a wad of gum.
*PinkLady* 03-25-2003, 10:18 PM Most of my teachers don't care about gum chewing, as long as you're not twirling it around or sticking it in your hair.
Kay Scarpetta 03-25-2003, 10:28 PM We are not supposed to.... half the teachers care, half of them don't. Hell, some of them even give you gum
I Dream of Jeannie 03-25-2003, 10:32 PM We can chew gum and eat during all of my classes. :happyface
DarleneIllyria 03-25-2003, 10:39 PM At the high school, in some classes you could chew gum. In other classes, you couldn't. You know, I really can't bitch and moan about the classes that didn't allow gum chewing. I can't tell you how many times I accidentally touched gum underneath the desk. It's nasty. Common sense should tell people to get off your butt and throw the gum in the trash can. If you can't get to a trash can right away, keep chewing for a few more minutes and then get up to sharpen your pencil or something ad throw the gum in the trash then.
TibbyTibby2 03-25-2003, 10:43 PM yeah my teachers don't care... except for choir for obvious reasons.
Swimfan85 03-25-2003, 10:45 PM we can chew gum in school:)
Mr. Shy Guy 03-25-2003, 10:51 PM I remember back in middle school, all the teachers were like...paranoid if we had gum. But now it's ok pretty much. Except for wood class which I can understand why.

Brian 03-25-2003, 11:33 PM My school allows people to chew gum. Heck, they allow students to do just about anything as long as it's legal.:p
Titania 03-26-2003, 11:39 AM they dont care if we do at my school, or eat, drink, etc...
¤I Love Clay Aiken¤ 03-26-2003, 02:35 PM For the most part we could chew gum in school. Only a select classes/teachers wouldnt allow it. I dont blame some teachers or schools not allowing gum- people are so friggan immature they have to stick it under the desk and sh*t. GROW UP AND USE THE TRASH BUCKET!!!!
Hershey 03-26-2003, 06:08 PM In middle school we couldnt eat or chew gum in class-if you were caught w\ gum in your mouth going to the bus threw the hallway at the end of the day you could get a gum citation in my middle school. But now in high school we can eat and drink in most of my classes.:happyface

Same here. And I remember when I started middle school the two things I thought were so cool compared to elementary were: 1. Lockers. 2. We were allowed to chew gum. LOL :lol: Now I don't even like gum.
Chad22 03-26-2003, 07:30 PM I Rarely ever chew gum anyway. I Ate a Whopper in class once though (The Burger king Kind, Not the candy)...Teacher didnt even notice LOL!
julian bozo 03-27-2003, 01:26 AM I saw a news story about that on the news tonight.
I think kids should be allowed to chew gum. Also as
the privillage of chewing gum they should dispose of
it properly. I like the flavored bubble gum.
Kristina 03-27-2003, 02:31 PM Nope we can't, I bring it sometimes though it's just a matter of the teachers not seeing me chew it.
Brandon 03-27-2003, 10:01 PM nowhere in the handbook does it say we're not allowed to chew gum in school. so i chew gum all the time. and i don't care what my teachers think...
