<p>As in what does your year in particular have that sets it apart from the other years at your school?</p>
<p>The '09 class at my school is notorious for having the greatest student losses (through expulsion) in recent history. My school usually has a great track record with this type of stuff (some ~98% of our students attend 4 year institutions, to give you a clue), but the '09 class is already 12% or so lighter than when it first began.</p>
<p>Any such distinctions to be had at whatever school you attend?</p>
<p>At my school, the class of '09 has dropped from having over 800 students freshman year, but now senior year we have 500-something. Which is a hundred less than the end of last year. lol. This is from drop-outs and expulsions, stuff like that.
We're also the "smartest" class "ever" - BUT we're all notorious [in math/physics anyway] for not "showing work" to solve a problem. We're all "do it in your head" kind of people.
Also, for the first time in pretty much.. ever, the top 6 students are all girls, then one guy, then girls again till number 10.</p>
<p>-We're known for being the most competitive (e.g. I'm 35th in my class right now, but if I was an '08-er, I'd be top 10).
-Getting into the most fights.
-Most gang affiliation.
-Most pregnancies.
-Most disrespectful for teachers.
-The only grade in the history of my school that has NOT won Spirit Week sophomore or junior year which basically means we'll never win because freshmen and seniors just... Don't win. Ever.</p>
<p>We're known for:
-Being the biggest
-Being haveing the most AP boys
-Being the most "academic" class on campus
-Being the best all around class (ECs,APs,Volunteering,Behavior,ect...) in abot 5 years</p>
<p>We have some incredible athletes (about 10 kids out of 120 in the class have already commited to a college to play varsity athletics before senior year has even started) and some really smart people. Other than that its pretty average.</p>
<p>My fellow '09ers at school are generally more involved than the other classes. After we leave, a bunch of the school clubs are going to fall apart from lack of leadership. We're also the biggest. 2008 graduated about 290 kids...we'll have something like 330.</p>
<ul>
<li>Worst attitude (e.g., most prone to making teachers quit/cry/go on hiatus)</li>
<li>Very lazy, except for about 30 kids</li>
<li>A bunch of cheaters</li>
<li>Unmotivated -- at the beginning of sophomore year, we had $30 in our class account</li>
</ul>
<p>For some reason our class has 35 people in it, while all the others have about 100. Apart from maybe five or six people, we have a reputation for being pretty apathetic about everything in general. Except soccer.</p>
<p>We have managed to reschedule every test last semester - but one - math. When the class rep and me (vale) approached the staff room - everybody was like "No - not this time." But we were a brilliant team :-) and in the end it was like a game to us. We gave one of our most patient teachers a fire extinguisher as graduation gift, "in case another class knows exactly where your car is."</p>
<p>(There is a song in German, it goes like this:
Teacher, we know where your car was parked...
burnt nicely, burnt nicely..
= Professor, wir wussten wo dein Auto stand
am Stra</p>
<p>We were the last class to be taught the traditional biology class with the coolest biology teacher ever.</p>
<p>We're the smallest graduating class in a long time; we lose at least two or three kids to other schools every year (we had about 105 people when we started, and we're down to about 80).</p>
