Parents think their son/daughter is so great that they have a bumper sticker on their vehicle to show everyone his/her accomplishment. Well, where would he/she be if my son didn't serve our country to allow your kid to have the freedoms they enjoy?
Who gives a shit that your son/daughter is an honor student. My son defends freedom for your honor student
A person in high school enrolled in the maximum number of Honors and/or Advanced Placement (AP) classes. Most are concerned about their grades and have hopes of attending a "good" college. Generally, these students understand the art of BSing everything - essays the night before, homework either copied from a friend in the hall or done in the class before its due, etc. - and still maintain great grades. Contrary to popular belief, many Honors students are down-to-earth, procrastinate like its their job, and are involved in school acitivities. Of course, you'll always have those few whose only friends are the AP Calculus textbook and #2 pencil.
Honors Student 1: I need the AP Calculus homework that's due today! I had a soccer game last night till 8 and then didn't feel like doing anything so I fell asleep.
Honors Student 2: No problem, I need AP Chemistry though, I only could finish half of it this morning.
a student in school who apparently can't be inattentive, get good grades, and stay in honors level classes
On the contrary to what many may believe, I know several honors students who procrastinate, don't take notes, don't listen to what the teacher is teaching, and they still get the grades to stay in honors classes. I guess Mrs. Sullivan was wrong.
A person who is in all honors classes and thinks that you will have no future if you do not go to Harvard. Tends to believe that nothing matters except getting all A+'s. Does not think independently, whatever the teacher teaches them, they believe. Rejects anybody who gets less than a B+, and hates anybody in 'standard' classes. This person is most likely either white and/or asian.
