    I hated high school, but its probably the same as private. Gossip, homework, mean girls, mean teacher, nice people, nice teachers...

    oh my gosh. do.not.switch.

    worst years of my life. try to go to a good public school because all the decent ones are living hell. and even the good ones are not so great. you will run into druggies that steal ur lunch, and other personal belongings. DONT go to the bathrooms in school. because most of the time the toilets are infested with lice and bedbugs that are transferred through a different series of animals that live around the schools and constantly hide in the bathrooms. also, lunch is war. the meatloaf, which by the way is the only thing they serve, is not even meat. i got wat started out as a sore throat, but to this day, i am infected with hiv and my lower body is paralyzed.have fun

    You should wear a helmet at all times.

    Public schools are like a zoo, without the cages to protect yourself from the other students.

    Usually public-school students are agressive and dangerous. Don't bring anything valuable, as they'll steal it from you and eventually threaten to kill you.

    Be careful. And good luck.

    it depends on the school.

    I loved my public highschool, but I lived in an awesome area.
