The Official High School Thread

I'm about to take a trip to visit a high school friend, so I started remembering all types of shit...

Anyway, anzer me zis:
Where did you (or are you) go (going) to high school?
Then write a hilarious high school story. Everyone has one, people are fucking retarded in high school.

I went to this little school called Archbishop Curley - Notre Dame in Miami. The whole school (grades 9-12) totalled about 500 students.

Anyway, here's the story of How I Was Nearly Expelled, Days Before Graduation:

Since my best friend, the guy I'm visiting, became editor of the yearbook (wotta loser!) after his brother, I was pretty much dragged into it and forced to help out. A lot. If anybody else has worked on a yearbook, you know that 95% of the people who volunteer to help out only want to take pictures of themselves and their friends. No one wants to do layouts or typing.

So that's what I was stuck doing every other afternoon for a couple of months. To alleviate the insane boredom, I'd make fun of people's names, titles, etc, especially if they were in the room with me at the time. These were usually quickly fixed after the laughter died down. Usually.

Days before graduation, at the senior party, our yearbooks arrive. We look through them, laughing at pictures; good times. Then, Andy walks up to me; he can barely stand, he's laughing so hard. He just points at a page. I look through it, see nothing of interest. I look again. Down at the bottom, where the page number is supposed to be, there's a little comment about a classmate. It gets worse, it's about a girl. About a handicapped girl. Knowing her would make this 10x funnier. I wish I had a scanner so I could upload a picture. It said, simply enough, that she sucked. On every single yearbook that was delivered to the school; she sucks.

*dies*

I got into a shitload of trouble for that. Luckily, I'm me, and I got out of it.

They made us all bring in the books and the faculty blocked out the comment with a magic marker. They made a day of it. Of course, I never brought mine in.

And that's the funniest non-pornographic story I can remember.

EDIT: Here's a picture of the page... the name has been changed to protect the innocent.

I went to a corrupt, ghetto shitpile of a highschool. My friends from highschool don't tell funny stories, they tell hardboiled "scared straight" prison stories about that festering garbage heap. With an enrollment of less than 200 we had a prostitution ring, a guy that was arrested for home-invasions, a major financial scandal, an illegally undereducated staff, 2 lawsuits, a couple of seniors over 24, and thousands of dollars of equipment were stolen by students every year. I believe our principal was also addicted to painkillers.

I don't have many stories, I was too busy keepin my head down or skipping to do "independent learning"

I heard that recently some kids took over a shack on the rooftop, and that the old programming classroom is now the "playstation room"

I went to Broadneck High School, and graduated in 99. I don't know about a single hilarious story, but one thing that sticks out in my mind was in my Latin class, I fell asleep during the final exam, after I had finished my test, but we couldn't leave. When I woke up, I rubbed my eyes, and felt lotion ALL over my hands and face. Apparantly Stephanie, and this other girl Michele (Who had nothing better to do in that class than go back and forth with me) thought it'd be great fun. Anyway, the teacher was in on it too, and told me that'll be my lesson not to fall asleep in class. I've been going out with Stephanie for 4 years (in december). There are a bunch of other high school stories I could tell about her, or a few of my other friends, but that stuck out.

Oh, and Korly dressed up as Reptile for Halloween in our senior year.

I went to Newbury Park High School in Newbury Park , Ca.

Best time of my life and I still laugh about it.

Graduated in 1991.

I went to Berkner H.S. in Richardson, Texas...graduated in 98. Lots of little stories, but I don't want to into detail for fear of the law catching up with me. :sweat:

I will say that one year a few of us vandalized J.J. Pearce High School (Jessica Simpson's school) and that was pretty fun. Lots of fun actually. :lol:

Attending Stephen Decatur High School in Berlin MD, and christ almighty there is NOTHING to do but skip school and find your own fun. Doing it while still managing straight A's is the challenge...well not really. It's laughably simple.

Chippewa Secondary. We used to sell bags of oregano to stupid wanna-be potheads and laughed at their reactions. "Holy shit, this is the best weed ever" and such.

not my story, but i know someone that almost got expelled days before his graduation in 2000.

i went to LaGuardia H.S. of the Arts (probably the best specialized talent school here in NYC), and i knew some kid that was pretty normal when i first met him, but turned all fucked up in the end. yea, so i guess if you go to an art school, you're required to take an art regents exam. standard shit i guess, portfolio, multiple choice shit on the past 3-4 years of studying art, and an essay or two.

i don't remember what we were supposed to write on the essay portion, but this dude trashed what he originally had and wrote up something else going off on teachers he hated, making a terrorist threat saying he was going to blow up the school graduation day. so yea, the teachers read it, called the cops, and nearly expelled him. they ended up making him see a social worker, and banned him from attending graduation ceremonies in fear of him actually acting on it.

he wouldn't have done it. he just got tired of everything and wanted to rant it all out. well... that's what he told me.

Did the same thing on New Years to the neighbours. I'll be back with something good...

Well, originally where I was going to go to highschool in KY was a ghetto ass school, where I would have probably wound up at the top of my class. Not hard considering a class size starts at like 100 and dwindles down to below 50 by senior year.

Instead, freshmen year I went to local Catholic school. I was there for only a semester, but I liked it. It was like, a thousand times harder than my public school, but I did remarkably well in my religion classes (I was the only one not at least baptized christian. I think one other guy had not gone through communion). Best part about catholic school was definetly the slutty girls. There was one girl who liked to fool around with me, just cause I was the new guy (how weird was that!). It wasnt too hard making new friends cause everybody was cause they all came from small catholic grade schools. I even had this cute nerdy girl who was desperately in love with me and probably would have been my first real girlfriend but I left and moved to WI after first semester.

Highschool in WI was a challenge. I didnt make friends nearly as fast and I could have only dream about getting a girl. I moved to a rich very suburban school that also was very hard so I was in the top 20% of my class. I made a few good friends but I dont think I have too many crazy stories about stuff we did ourselves. Definetly the most dissapointing thing about highschool was girls though. If I would have never moved I probably could have been a pimp, but situation where never right for me. For one, most of the girls at my school were god damn gorgeous. I dont know how so many attractive girls got into one school. So pretty much they only dated the better looking guys or just didnt date people from our school at all. If they were not hot...they were damn ugly. I can count the average looking girls in a class of 180 on my hand. So basically, I didnt have much of a chance.

College is better though :)
