what is the dumbest school assembly you ever attended?

[snl75]

hi i was just thinking about when i went to school and one of the things i remember most is the school assemblys there is not a one of us here who didnt have to go to one in school and most of the time they were very useful for getting us out of class for an hour they also were usally interesting but every now and then there would be one that was sooo lame that you were thinking. to yourself you know even that class im failing is more interesting than this trash. and i was wondering wat is the worst school assembley you ever attended ? mine was in third grade and it involed an artist with a HUGE ego he was about 60 . and had done work for celebs like desi arnaz and janet blair and he came to the school and did some sort of expo of his art what made this guy so lame is that he was no good he would put music on and while the music was playing he would do his so called drawings and in between the music mr ego would rattle on and on about the celebs he had done work for now at 6 7 and 8 years old who wants to hear about betty hutton janet blair and desi arnaz? granted i knew who desi was and had maybe heard of janet blair but im not sure that the first and second graders had a clue of what this man was talking about. and as for his so called art i once made a finger painting with pudding that looked better needless to say i was so glad to see my classroom i didnt know how to act .i think the teachers were glad it was over too.. what bad asselmbys do you all remember?

[Mikado]

Most boring: elementary school we had this guy stand on the stage and teach us sign language for an hour

Most disgusting: this movie that showed all these dead people in car crashes

Funniest: on White out day there was this assembly outside where people from our school pretended they just got in a car crash and were in these 2 smashed cars from the junkyard then the real fire fighters came in and cut them out with the jaws of life it was funny because the student acting sucked and it was long as hell and boring watchin the firefighters saw the roof off the car

Most regretted Non Mandatory assembly- i signed up to go to an assembly that a lady from penn state spoke it was extremely boring and im not even going to college let alone penn state and now i keep gettin crap in the mail from them

Hmmmm, That reminds me of the time the school forced us to sell choco-bars in order to pay for unis for a school football team ( I didnt want to, I cant stand football ) then, after so many kids worked so hard to make the money, we had another assembly where the principal announced he'd decided against having a football team, kept the money and never told us what they were going to use it for!!!!! ( By what right did they DO that??? Its not like the principal went out and sold all those bars ) :mad:

I hate going to school assemblys, especially the ones where they introduce all the teachers to the students. That's IMO, pointless.

My middle school had the absolute worst assemblies. There was one where this guy came and dressed up in different costumes and did these cheesy inspirational skits by himself. At the end of his preformance he made everyone stand up and tell the people standing near them that they were beautiful. The school made signs and hung them EVERYWHERE that said "you are beautiful!1" and gave everyone shirts that said "I'm with beautiful" and had arrows pointing in every direction. Oh my god it was horrible. I could not stand it. Another time they hired the band who wrote the cool whip jingle to do a concert.

We had an assembly in 7th grade where they showed Moby Dick. It was a big one too. Our school, a catholic school and another grade school had to go.
God, how boring. I hated it.

We also had the assembly where we had to sell magazines. That sucked too.

I always liked school assemblies. Good break from class.

Probably the dumb assembly were they showed us a powerpoint presentation about bullying.

[Titania]

there were so many in middle school...

but ill use the most recent...college orientation lecture...

"CAN I KISS YOU?"

it was this program about how someone should always "ask" before taking any initiative in a relationship...supposed to promote healthy dating and such...but there were all these lame skits with guys asking in the heat of the moment..."can i kiss you?" like they wanted to know if they could borrow a pencil.
"you should always talk through it! it's romantic!"
somehow the room full of 18-20 yr olds didnt quite buy this...

oh, and if you volunteered for a skit, you got a free shirt that said "can i kiss you?" across the front in huge letters. hooray! :rolleyes: ;)

We also had an assembly in like 3rd grade about monsters living under your bed

[Southern Hellraiser]

we have an assembly every year when this band from a community college sings us songs. We cant even hear the words.

[Rachel3118]

I don't know, there all pretty boring but I still like them because we get to relax. It might have to be one about breast cancer where the person demonstrated by putting on a shirt with fake boobs on. My sister went to one where someone was dressed as Albert Einstein and he was singing and dancing.

[MissZero]

hmm well pretty much all our asemblys are stupid. theres always the beiginning of the year assembly where they tell u the rules and of course retell the same boring stories that they tell every year lol

umm the ones about planning for your future are stupid cause they never get u anywhere anyway and i always get junk emails from the program people that do the assemblys

the worst assembly was probably when we needed grief counselors at our school and they called us all to the auditorium so they could talk to us and all they did was make us even more upset (and pissed off in addition to that)..they were *******s

other than that i dont mind assemblys if they get me out of class

[MissZero]

but the best was when the former Winston guy came tot alk to us about the dangers of smoking....he was soooooo funny and he had pictures of his family and his son is gorgeous lol...and we got to see pictures from when he was a stunt double for harrsion ford..it was pretty cool

[dawsongirl]

Pep Rallys. Gawd...I HATE PEP RALLYS!!!!!!!! I would have rather gone to class.

[JDS84]

This story is kind of funny. One day while I was in high they brought the whole school to the gym for what we thought was an assembly and it turned out to be a drug rade. The sniffing dog peed on purses and backpacks

[AllIWantIsYourClutch]

We have sports assemblies for each season and they are horrible. Once we had a White Castle eating contest between teachers and students. We've had freestlye competitions, dance competitions, fake wrestling matches...Stupidest things ever. But we're required to go, so we have to sit through all these people making fools out of themselves. It just reminds me how much I hate my school.
