I cant focus in school
When the teacher is giving a lesson im restless as hell, i start thinking about other things, which means i dont pay attention which leads to me almost failing and not understanding anyything.
I can focus at work, sports and everything else except school.

I can't focus great either man, I used to sleep and daydream, and that would make me tired in all my important classes. Now I try to take notes and pay attention in all of my classes. if you're feeling super restless and about to fall asleep, pinch yourself so it hurts and pay the **** attention brah! Gl haha

Apprently if you ingest a whole heap of aspartame/phenelanaline (diet soda sweetener) it can detererate your concentration.
However i drink about a 1/3 gallon of it a day and im fine.

thats why i hated highschool everything was useless knowledge. every day i felt like it was a waste of my time. college is alot diffrent so atleast you can look forward to that.

i know what you mean man
im the same
i barely get A's anymore and this summer i have to retake english A and math A and B.
Drink coffee or something it helps a lot.
I started taking in coffee once or twice a day on a school day ( i know it sounds bad but i need to wake my ass up )

just do it...simple answer that solves pretty much any problem. get control of your mind, look at the teacher, listen to the words, think about them. afterwards, read and go over things if you need to. it may be hard, but if you sit down with a book, a strong will, no distractions, punch yourself in the face, and study, you will get **** done.
rarely in high school was i too interested in what was going on, and im constantly thinking about 10000000 different things, but thats life. you do what you have to do if you want to achieve something.

It's much easier to do in college when you get into your major-related courses. You couldn't pay me to study jack **** in high school, but in college, studying has somehow become fun. Mainly because I'm an Exercise Science major and training is my life, though. Try to find some way to make it enjoyable.

Just like last year I averaged 80% and now I can't do ****. I'm averaging like 60% now. (53 in math and English, I'm only at 60% thanks to electives that I sleep in)

yea, but just try anything to make you stay awake. You can either follow BandApart advice and try to force yourself to listen and pay attention. Or you can take in caffeine or something like soda or something. I take coffee in the morning and listen to music during class which helps me stay up and do my work.

SERIOUSLY if you have difficulties paying attention even if you're trying REALLY hard you probably have ADD/ADHD.
It's been proven that roughly 5% that's 0.5/100 people have it.

Tell them that you are going to fail school if you don't get put on meds. Public school systems aren't designed to support ADHD type brains.
Your parents sound ****ing retarded, you have a learning disorder that's extremely easily fixed, and they won't fix it?
EDIT: I'm making the assumption you have add here because it's extremely hereditary. If one of your parents have chances are that you have it.

My parents arent retarded, theyre very supportive. They just think im lazy and dont focus cause i dont like it.
They also understand im almost failing, and they keep telling me to go get help and if you need a tutor we will hire one. But every time i go for help, i still dont understand.

haha who gives a **** about add, I have it. Love it hahaah, make me go wild in the gym. How i went through it in skool is took meds. Later on in life u just gonna have to find something u love to do n try to make a career outta it. Like me never liked skool, infact hated it, although i managed to grad from hs, n make it into university. Now i switch my whole career up pursing kins, and just did my personal trainer cert. Feels good man. Get urself checked up for it, know wat u have is better than not knowing. Not a big problem anyways.
