my school dilemma - I NEED YOUR HELP!!

So ....let me try to break it down for you and then you can tell me whether I should stay and stick it out or cut my losses and leave.


School start in Jan. Things were going great! I was learning so much. My teacher was awesome! But then at the end of April he broke the news that he was leaving back to Cali. He had his reasons, all valid. I didn't realize how much he went to bat for us with the director until we were forced to deal with him without Jon (our teacher).

Then came Xander (the director) he taught us for 2 weeks. Not entirely bad but he didn't teach us Soundtrack Pro which is what we were supposed to learn those 2 weeks.

After that was Barbara. I hated that bitch with every fiber in my being. She's this little 24 yr old Miami girl. It was like having your friend's ditzy little sister. Ugh......we had her for 4 weeks. I don't know how I made it through that.

Then we had no teacher for 2 days because Xander couldn't find one. Both days I showed up only to find that there was no class.

Then on my bday, surprise!!!! Jon was back!! he came back to miami to sell his truck and offered to teach us after effects. it was the best 2 weeks since he left. It was super intense because we were doing 3 weeks worth of work in 2. i loved it. it was challenging and fun and i loved it.

Then came Nate. Nate taught us absolutely nothing. The whole thing would have been a complete waste if he hadn't taken us to Channel 7. So I see it as a trade off.

Then came Gustavo. He showed us some after effects stuff. It was ok at first. But then he started acting like he was taking over. No one liked him. The guys says he has to be a crackhead. I dunno. He's annoying but not horrible.

Which bring us to Mr. Wonderful. He's like 50 something. He's been teaching tv production for 20 something years. And he treats this class like its a film class, which its not. and I'm sooo bored with production. I just don't like it! In the course of his first week he's been irresponsible with our equipment, smoked in front of us during class, answered his cell and had a convo during class, invited his friend to sit in on our class without saying anything to us, and touched me. I told this stuff to Xander and he gave him a good talking to. But...it doesn't make school in general any better.

I know that the rest of the next few months will be this half assed waste of time. its certainly not worth the money i'm paying. My thing is, I could just be spending this time at home working on these programs and putting together a good demo.


Stay in school
Pros:
Follow through and finish what I started.
Get a diploma.
If i don't stay till the end future employers might see me as a quitter.
I don't want family and friends to think i'm a quitter.
It's only 9 more weeks.

Cons:
Spending money and not getting my money's worth.
Wasting time I could be using working on my demo.
I probably won't get the amount of lab hours I need and could end up not graduating anyway.
I'm totally unmotivated so I'm missing classes and I don't care about assignments anymore.
No one cares about diplomas or degrees, just that you have the skills.
I could be working on my craft and looking for work instead of paying to be bored.
I've learned most of what I wanted to learn already. And what I haven't learned I can learn online.
I don't wanna be a sucker.
The teachers we get suck and they keep going over stuff we've already learned.
The director is a cheap, lazy, jerk who SUCKS ROYALLY at his job.
9 weeks feels like forever when every week seems like a month.
So my options are A. stick it out till the end B. cut my losses and save myself at least $900. HELP!! what should i do??
