What is your high school famous for?

<p>^ I'm just glad you're not curious as to why I said uh-oh.</p>

<p>bowchicabowbow...</p>

<p>don't worry, just curious! there are no hot teachers at my high school anyway...</p>

<p>I wouldn't have a problem if I had a relationship with...</p>

<p>Nevermind.</p>

<p>^ Creep! Well, actually, there is this one teacher...</p>

<p>Our school officials always like to brag that we are "the largest IB school in North America and the 4th largest in the world" </p>

<p>The only reason it's so large is because they accept anyone and everyone who applies to the program.</p>

<p>We're also ranked as having the best overall sports program in FL.</p>

<p>Our swimming team coach's son is Ryan Lochte (Olympic swimmer)</p>

<p>other than that...we're just another overcrowded public school in the south. :/</p>

<p>There are several hot teachers at my school that are in their early twenties. Why are they so off-limits just because they teach? Haha</p>

<p>inveniamviam:</p>

<p>well, you COULD just wait until graduation...</p>

<p>::thinks about hot teachers::</p>

<p>^^ Heehee, my school is smaller and still churns out more IB Diplomas than yours. How many people in the IB Program actually get IB Diplomas in your schooL?</p>

<p>sevitagen - Yeah, that's only...9 months! Which happens to be the period of gestation for humans... lol.</p>

<p>edit - This is really awkward, but one of my teachers just quit and is going back to grad school but has been trying to get me to go to the same college as him..</p>

<p>We're pretty small and from a small town (actually, a group of small towns) so nothing major. </p>

<p>-Locally, we are stereotyped as the "hick school." </p>

<p>-We also had a girl stab herself two years ago, but pretend that she got attacked, so that got us on the news regionally. Same thing when some kids burned our library down.</p>

<ul>
<li>We were the evacuation point for a fire that may have been on the national news.</li>
</ul>

<p>Landon Donovan went here.

<p>Now we are known for CIF championship water polo and heroin busts indicting those CIF championship water polo players...</p>

<p>Our girls XC is always good.</p>

<p>Oh, and then there was the guy who had a full ride to USC for football, and then didn't get a 2.0, citing that "I'm too good for college coach, I don't need that pussy s**t.</p>

<p>Idiots.</p>

<p>We had an open campus at one point, and then there was a gang fight with 3 casualties in front of a small taqueria. Now we have a closed campus.</p>

<p>We've had at least 1 student attend Harvard every year for the last 20 years (hopefully it will be me this year :) )</p>

<p>Oldest school in CA still on its original location.</p>

<p>The streets around my school are the same as the ones in Northern Newport Beach, because a former principal was the one who built everything north of 50th street in Newport.</p>

<p>Finally, we had a teacher, a multi-millionaire who wore a Rolex everyday and could have a different car for every day of the week, who worked for 20 years here. He retired because he didn't want to redo all of his certifications under the new legislation. He was an all-state football player in 1968.</p>

<p>My school is pretty much brand new (I'm a senior and part of the first graduating class) so it really doesn't have much of a name for itself. However, it offers a lot of special career related courses and allows students not zoned for the school to come across the county to take part in these programs. While some of these programs are nice like engineering and biotechnolagy, most are terrible.</p>

<p>My school is also pretty new, when I graduate next year it'll only be about 7 years old. Recently we've had quite alot of vandelism.. drawings in the parking lot and 21 or so oak trees cut down. Umm there's also the fact that the man that my school is named after is one of the oldest, most boring speakers I've ever listened to.
Bright side: We managed to irritate people from out of state about two years ago with a Gay Straight Alliance club and our cross country isn't half bad..</p>

<p>At our school people are always showing up to school with *****es painted on their cars...</p>

<p>okayyyy wth is that edited out? I meant.. phalluses :]</p>

<p>Sinking!</p>

<p>Seriously, due to some bad planning my school was built on top of a swamp. So locally we are known as the "sinking school." There are places where apparently the ground was level when the school was built. You could never tell by looking at it.</p>

<p>We are also known as being "ghetto" and "poor." Our school kind of looks like a bunker or a bomb shelter. But it's being rebuilt so hopefully we can shed that image soon. Not that any of my friends will be there for that, but my sister and my cousins will.</p>

<p>My high school is famous for its scandals, and it sports, especially the football team. Actually, we are the #1 high school football team in the nation.</p>

<p>My school is known for being 99% white and 100% rich and snobby. We have a killer baseball team, too.</p>

<p>^ Ew, you school sounds suckish. Is it private?</p>

<p>^ Nope, a public school in suburban Ohio, in a town full of closed-minded right-wing Christians, where high school seniors almost invariably attend the local state universities and anyone who tries to push the boundaries is outcasted.</p>

<p>2 more years until I'm free!</p>
