What is your school like?
I live in rural Wisconsin and it seems like my school is kinda different than others in different parts of the country. I was just wondering what yours is like. You don't have to say exactally where you live, just saying the state is fine. Thanks!
My school:
We start school at 8:10 and get off at 3:29 (why not 3:30 I have no idea) and we have 8 class periods. Each period is approximately 45 minutes long.
Band, Chorus and Art are all classes that we can take
We have 3 minutes between classes and a 15 minute break between 2nd and 3rd hour.
We only have one lunch and it lasts 40 minutes. We serve 2 things for lunch and it is fixed price (meaning you pay first and then get your meal, every lunch is $2.50)
My class is about 82 people. Our school has about 300 people who go to it, everyone knows everyone.
We have the regular cliques: the jocks, the populars, the freaks, the geeks, and the musicians.
No one is really all that mean to each other, everyone gets along pretty well (sometimes it's a different story, but not usually)
We have a pretty relaxed dress code.
I have friends who smoke, drink, and do drugs occasionally.
Most of the school drinks (even those who you would think wouldn't)
How does your school compare?
Oh, and also we aren't allowed to carry backpacks/tote bags around school.

I live in Washington state. And my school is about 3times the size of yours (1000+ Students) We enter school at 7:40 and out at 2:30. We have 6- 8 periods (you can take some extra classes, before and after school, but by default you get 6). We have 3 lunch periods (one for every grade level). It not like your school, there is always someone you have yet to meet. For the most part you just stick around to seeing and talking to your regular friends in your grade and hardley ever see anything of the other two. It's a very large school. I really don't know about the smoke/drink/drug stuff, but i really could care less. Dress code is ok. Not perfect though. They ban stuff like old english writing, red/blue tees, gang relate attire they ban. Gangs are a huge problem in my community. Which is why you stick around to your regular friends - you can't trust everyone you see. I've seen a couple guns in lockers in my years...

Well, I'm from rural Minnesota. My school starts at 8:05, and ends at 2:50. We have 7 hours per day, and each hour is 50 minutes long. We have 5 minutes in between classes. We have 2 lunch periods. People with first lunch have lunch after 4th hour, and lunch is from 11:40, and first bell rings again at 12:05, and second bell rings at 12:10. People with second lunch have lunch after 5th hour. Their 5th hour gets over at 12:35, and then first bell rings at 1:00. We have about 500 students, My class has 131 students. On Fridays our schedule is messed up. We have 45 minute classes, a 50 minute advisory period after 4th hour, and we have a common lunch from 12:35 until 1:15. We have our basic cliques, jocks, popular snobby girls, freaks, geeks, and loners. We get along really well. We don't fight a lot. Normal dress code, except the sluts get to let their boobs hang out and no one really cares. Most of the popular girls in my grade are pill poppers, they don't do a ton of smoking but they do drink. I don't know what else to say. Your school seems pretty similar to mine.

Im from LA.My school goes from 7:20 to 3:16, we have 3 tracks (a,b,c, we got a lot of students so its a year round school) and its really packed and a "failing school" but in reality students here are lazy not stupid. We get 50 min lunches and 18 min nutrition. With a standerd dress code and a Sh!tload of druggies (my friend snorts crack before our 6th) and really has no social class, Im a geek (straight up nerd) and can hand out with the nerds, rockers, jocks, jerkers, library, etc. its an awesome experience even though its said its a shitty school

Where I'm from public schooling isn't very well so in case you wish a well schooling you need to attend to a personal one. But this rather is dependent, a few public faculties are very well and a few are very dangerous, simply as a few personal faculties are very well and others very dangerous.
