I'm in grade 9.
I started a programming club in my school.
I told them that I'd teach basic HTML,JS,CSS,C++,C,Java.
Nobody signed up.
Because it happens on Thursdays.
FML.
However, people told other people that I have wicked programming skills and so one of the school staff asked me to help them maintain their school website, which is currently just Google Sites (*vomit).
:(

That's seriously awesome! I hope you get a good turn out.

In grade 9, I was fighting with my friend over a mechanical pencil he broke of mine.

Careful, son. If anything at all goes wrong with anything computer related at your school, you will be the first to blame. Keep your head down.

When I was in 9th, I was helping people survive their web design class with the teacher who had a hard-on for unstructured databases. It was an entirely front end class.

I also got picked to help maintain my school's Google site. Well I volunteered because it hurt my soul to see it suck so much.

@jAsE they will all die. Most likely before you do, as well, since you're younger. 🖒🖒

@jAsE dammm now I see where all the rage started

@jaread good advice. Problem with me, it usually was my fault xD

@jAsE holy. Crap. I wanna knock the shit outta them all for running such a bad school.

When I was in 9th grade, I was playing Counter Strike Source in my Java class while I was supposed to be learning how to code. Fast forward 11 years, I'm now a QA automation engineer developing in java. 🤷🏻‍♂️

When I was in 9th Grade...I wasn't there most of the time. Report card had an attendance rate of 52% but I made good money while doing some work as a freelancer. Build my self quite a reputation in some circles. Fuck the current school system, it's useless af.

I'll start ninth grade in a few weeks, and I've made a couple websites, published a few apps, made an OS, etc. I asked one of my friends to try my app, he did, told me it sucked and deleted it. No one cares about the dev behind it, and no one wants to become a developer. The only people who are developers are people who are fascinated, and write great, innovative code, and people who need money and just get the job done. I made a website for my school, with some blocked games, and everyone loved it. They thanked me, and eventually it got blocked (my goal). People were interested in how I did it, but not enough to do anything about it. You're basically the person who comes into a programming class expecting to make google in a day. You can't expect it from people, they'll always have better alternatives than you can make, because you, alone, cannot beat facebook, google, or microsoft. The lesson is that as much as you want them to, people don't care about what happens behind the scenes.

Side note: teachers HATE if you install dev stuff on their computer (especially when you should be writing an essay on word)

At 9th grade, I don't have cell phone, internet & don't even know about programming languages. Instead of teaching give more time to learn.
