<p>Now, I'm just wondering about this question, as I am really hating my high school right now. </p>

<p>So, I am wondering why is (or isn't) your high school great. I'm not talking about the academics, but just the overall environment. What makes your school special?</p>

<p>It’s like a fraternity. Everyone actually wants to be there. All boys school…</p>

3

<p>LOl we all know that school sucks…</p>

4

<p>If none of it is something you’re not looking forward to.</p>

5

<p>the kids, the kids, the kidsssss. </p>

<p>yeah…</p>

<p>School spirit helps a ton too. Basically, the months of August-September (football season) are fun at my school because everyone gets excited about the games and goes to all of them.</p>

7

<p>The campus should be decent looking, the staff should be well liked, the kids should be cool/nice/accepting (depends on the person and how well they fit in) and there should be a good amount of school spirit.</p>

<p>i like everything about my high school … the campus , teachers , students ,everything :)</p>

9

<p>the people here are awesome. and my classes are good but not too hard. I love high school</p>

10

<p>The fact that I only have one year left is what makes it so great.</p>

11

<p>Probably the two most important things is having accepting student body of other peoples diffrences, and also life planning that can guide students for success after high school.</p>

12

<p>My high school sucks because the people in it. I hate everyone in it. I hate people overall.</p>

13

<p>Not being ungreat?</p>

14

<p>It’s called HIGH SCHOOL.</p>

<p>You’re not supposed to enjoy it</p>

<p>Okay. I am just so freakin cynical today</p>

15

<p>@whatslife: I 100% agree with you. </p>

<p>The classes and facilities and teachers could be great but if the people suck that ruins everything. I can’t wait for September. Starting a new school (yes!!! :D).</p>

<p>^ Not Deerfield possibly? ;)</p>

<p>I think a lot of it’s down to the teachers, if they aren’t interested or don’t make it interesting then classes will suck. Obviously it wouldn’t be a great experience without friends, but how many people on CC actually have friends anyways?</p>

<p>Moments.</p>

<p>More specifically, moments with friends.</p>

<p>Yes, I’m romantic and idealistic and normal today :]</p>

<p>@UKgirl: Ah! You caught me! The cat is out of the bag. </p>

<p>Oh, I have friends! Well, I mean, I think I do. My friends and I are having some trouble with each other but I still would assume we’re friends. (Hopefully, I’ll make better ones next year, though)</p>
