I was just running through this in my mind, and I felt compelled to share, and ask others...

From K-12 and since, how many schools have you attended?

B.F. Day Elementary
Beacon Hill Elementary
Some elementary school in CA that I don't remember the name of.
Queen Ann Elementary
Coleman Elementary

I couldn't even tell you which grades I was in for each of the schools, except B. F. Day was where I started Kindergarten, and I think I started Coleman at some point in 4th grade.

Then things slowed down...

Meeker Jr, High
Stadium High

Chabot College
Luzerne County Community College
Wilkes University

So 10... and I have a strange feeling I am forgetting an elementary school in the list.

So, does anyone have more than 10?

Two or three elementary schools, I forget.
Junior high until they tore it down and turned it into 8-12.
One high school
Various school boards after Hs (didn't graduate)
College - to get ready for GED
College - Certificate - Admin assistant program.
Local Brazilian organization, studied Portuguese
Studied Portuguese with the New West school board.
Vancouver school board, photography 1 and 2
Vancouver school board, high school level stuff

In September, college again, Anthropology. Still not a HS graduate. Going to study HS level math with the VSB and with my college courses I'll probably be declared a HS graduate pretty soon.

Seven--I was bounced around a lot as a kid. Nine if you count college too--I went to community college and 4yr uni. Ten or possibly eleven IF I get into grad school.
