<p>A public school with about 1800 students overall, with about half minority and the other half white and asian.</p>
<p>Private, Catholic, Military, All-Boys School with about 300 kids</p>
<p>Public school. Granted, it’s a very nice, well-endowed, and very small rigorous public school in a nice state. I don’t mind it.</p>
<p>Especially in my underclassmen years, I was super-jealous of my cousin. My aunt works at Northfield Mount Hermon and her job, combined with his grades, got him a partial scholarship there. He was lucky, because that saved him from the failure known as the New Hampshire public school system (or at least, it failed all of my other cousins).</p>
<p>Large high school. 50% male, 50% female: 49% black, 49% white, 2% other.</p>
<p>98% Ghetto-hood
50% redneck
40% prep
20% weird
(obviously a lot of people fit in more than one category).</p>
<p>Actually, I forgot. I graduated.</p>
<p>I am taking a summer class at my local CC, just graduated from High School. Suckers :P</p>
<p>I went to a pretty subpar to medicore High School though. Wasn’t ghetto or anything but still hated that place.</p>
<p>A mediocre one.</p>
<p>I’ve been going to Catholic college prep schools all my life. My high school had about 450 kids give or take. Next year (junior year!) I’m making the jump to a public school with 1500 kids. so nervous, but excited!</p>
<p>New public school. 85% white, 10% black, and 5% other. We dominate in every sport except for football and basketball…we are a total white kid school. Really smart school or atleast it will be in the upcoming years. I like it have always gone to public school. A solid 65% of the kids dress prepy including me…public school is fun when its like this.</p>
<p>Sent from my DROIDX using CC</p>
<p>New private school. Small.</p>
<p>~80 kids in my grade. Almost all white with the occasional asian/hispanic/black.</p>
<p>Rural NY Public School. Literally 97% White, 2% Asian, 1% Black, 2 or 3 Hispanic/Native American kids. About 350 kids per grade. 25% go to a 4-year college, 25% go to community college, 50% don’t graduate or enter the workforce. Yeah.</p>
<p>Rural, football-centered, public intermediate and high school, that is infested (for the lack of a better word) with underachievers. As a friend told me, “we have some of the states best students, but we also have a lot of the state’s worst students.” I’ve never attended a class at a private/religious school. There’s a large minority population (to the point that in my school, whites are the minority).</p>
<p>Public school…Performing Arts! Like the ones you see on television with kids dancing on tables and crap…ya it’s cool B)</p>
<p>I go to a small, academically rigorous Jewish prep school in Bryn Mawr PA. It’s a dual-curriculum school, so in addition to six intensive secular classes I also have Hebrew, Biblical Exegesis (in the original hebrew), and Philosophy/Talmud (in aramaic when applicable). My grade has about 53 kids. The average graduating class has about 30-40% of the class go to Ivies or other top-tier schools (Michigan, Wellesley, Johns Hopkins, UCHicago, Stanford, UVA, Barnard, Hebrew U, etc). Most of the student body is white-ish. About ten percent of the school is either foreign born or first gen Americans.</p>
<p>Medium-sized small town public school. It was the only high school in our district until about 5 years ago. Really good AP, career, and arts programs, but really not that competitive. About 87% white, 8% Asian/pacific islander, 4% Hispanic, and 1% other. We have 5-8 foreign exchange students each year and we do a French exchange for 1 or 2 weeks in the spring. Overall it’s a decent school.</p>
<p>Pretty large public high school, only one in the county (rural area, yes we have high schools by counties). Mediocre, but really great AP programs, we have a grant that pays for all the tests and we even get $100 if we get a 3 or above on each of the exams because some girl once took every AP possible or something, I don’t know.</p>
<p>60-70% white, 30ish% black, the rest, other. I think we get like 3-5 foreign exchange students a year. </p>
<p>I like my school, even though it’'s not the best, it’s still pretty good.</p>
<p>I went to a public magnet school that’s #2 in its state. 80% white, no diversity. Many of the students were these hipster like liberals who thought themselves to be oh so intelligent and progressive. </p>
<p>Lawl.</p>
<p>A public charter performing arts school… It’s pretty fabulous(:</p>
<p>My current school is an average-sized rural public. Extremely sports oriented, and most kids here will usually just graduate high school or go to a local community college. The ones going to a four-year college are usually just going somewhere small and close, like Campbell or ECU.</p>
<p>My last school was a small-sized private international with a small class sizes of around 10, and quite rigorous at that. The average and above average kid there would usually go to one of USNews top 100 schools in the world, the below average there often go to the top 200 or 300 schools, while last year’s valedictorian went to MIT.</p>
<p>A selective public school, all girls in a very rich area, so often feels like a private school, but worse.</p>
<p>Quite small, 150 per class from grade 6-12</p>
<p>I go to a private Catholic all-girls’ prep school in the suburbs of a large city. Mostly white, some black, not many Asian. About 130 per grade.</p>
<p>In my area, there are tons of private/non-public schools, so it’s very normal to go to one. Since I technically live inside the city border, public schools are considered “ghetto” and very bad academically, except the few magnet high schools we have, which are hard to get into. Right outside the city, there are a few districts regarded as having good academics, so people who live there are more likely to go to public school, but many in my area go to Catholic school.</p>
