I also went to a couple of high schools and eventually got a GED. The first one was a big high school where I was in the gifted program. Met some cool people there, and some of them ended up being pretty successful in life (not me). Transferred out of there in about grade 10 because they kept giving me escalating suspensions for even the most minor lates. 5 minutes late, oh the suspension is 2 weeks this time because you had prior suspensions for this. Then I switched to an alternative school where there was no attendance, the classes were small, and the teachers went by their first names. I did pretty well in math and science but never finished because I was missing some English classes. There were some pretty cool people there as well. Later I did the GED, which was a snap but didn't really help me with anything. Eventually I got into university through a bridging program. Did well in certain courses but I'm at a similar impasse as far as actually finishing.

My mom was a valedictorian and so was my grandma, I got a and b grades up until I started skipping, and when I was there I got really good grades. The teachers and principals were perplexed as to why I skipped so much, plus me having the gay thoughts, and having only a mom, being poor, no living room furniture and so on really effected my social interaction and mental state. I excelled in English and art, had an art scholarship in middle school actually, but the stepdad I had at the time moved us out of state and blew the whole fucking thing. I went back later when I realized what it was, but the time limit had run out. That's when I started skipping and said fuck all y'all. It was a big mistake in hindsight. I'm OK now though.

I went to a marginally cliquey Catholic high school with a bunch of upper-Middle class, suburban white kids with lawyers for fathers who were absolutely zonked on drugs like 90% of the time (the kids, not the dads ). Everyone was moderately to pretty intelligent.
I received mostly A's and B's (a couple of C's, too) and graduated with a 3.6 GPA.

I was homeschooled for all but my junior and senior year of high school and those two were enough to give me an eating disorder, a self harm problem, and a hatred of humanity.
Im sorry to hear that Sara

My experience was pretty good. Still friends with everyone unless they died or went to prison. Most of the groups interacted except the really nerdy/emo kids. I was a major stoner and went to class high as a kite 99% of the time but still got an extremely high gpa. Have a few unbelievable stories.
When I was a junior there was a massive fight against the senior class that basically became a riot. Shit was a scene straight out of a movie. The group of kids came to a party throwing boulders over the fence until someone pulled a gun and then the rocks stopped.
Knew this girl who was a druggie slut and when her moms boyfriend went out of town she threw a party at his house. He was a fucking cop too. She told everyone to trash the house cuz she hated him. I remember people throwing dishes at each other like frisbees. Another friend punching holes in the wall. People walking out with TV’s and the icing on the cake someone stole his motorcycle and crashed it around the corner into a palm tree. People still talk about it a decade later.
Superbad is a pretty good example of high school imo.
