This will blow the minds of some in the UK, my graduating class was 844 students. Also my high school had an Olympic size indoor pool and full weights room, full size basketball court, and a spinning room full of bikes. Pretty common in most large high schools in the 1990’s in large cities.
I went to a middle school (i.e., 6-8th grades) in Virginia that had Olympic team/individual swimming, diving, water polo, handball and field hockey teams among traditional high sports -- including baseball, basketball, football, soccer, wrestling, tennis, golf, weight lifting, etc. sports. Many of the Silicon Valley high schools also have lacrosse, polo and other more niche sports.
844? This is crazy even for me in the USA. Small town schools don’t even have 844 students altogether.
@@SpiralSkylines yeah my highschool had like 400 students
Yea i had the same and im black so its crazy if you think about it i went to a A+ highschool with billinare sponsors
Yeah ^^ this was pretty much ours too. Especially because it was built in the 90s
I was also impressed by the fact that this kid is responsible enough to make two eggs for breakfast. I'm an adult and I can barely manage popping a bagel in the toaster. I usually just grab a Granola bar on the way out and eat it in the car.
I am glad you love our love of our flags LOL that makes me smile thanks!
fuck tribalism
The large hall he kept returning to is the commons. There’s a separate cafeteria. A weight room is quite common. Key club is a student service organization to perform community service. Visit old folks, etc.
I agree. Apart from elementary schools, all of my middle and high schools had weight rooms. Most of them had multiple weight rooms -- one for the weight lifting teams, one for the athletes and a dedicated one for all students (and faculty/staff).
Yes, you can pick your classes BUT you have to make sure by the time you graduate you have completed ALL required courses, ie required math, science english etc.. But then you can pick classes either by what you might enjoy OR what will start you in the right direction for college!
I had gym twice because I had finished one of my main classes I would just hoop two periods in a row lol
I graduated in 1996. I recently looked up videos from high schools in the 90s. People did it. The cameras were huge. People wanted to be in front of the camera but were also extremely camera shy.
We had weight lifting class in high school but everyone thought it was easy and too many people would sign up. So the first couple weeks we would have to run sprints and do horribly hard things until enough people dropped the class. After that it was fun and you could do basically whatever you wanted as long as it was exercise.
That room they kept coming back to with the round tables is the "commons" which is like a great hall or gathering area. I had a "commons" in my school but without those tables.
This was filmed at
Kamaik High School
Mukilteo, Washington
has 2,153 students
Most High schools have a weight rooms because they have America Football teams! The stronger you are the less chance of being injured in the game!
Yep my high school had weight rooms
That's Kamiak high school in Mukilteo Washington. There are 2 lunch rooms on that campus. The commons is a lunch room among other uses. There is also another lunch room in the back building
I’m an OG, 1977 graduated. Class 800 something, had a separate building for gym, basement was band, music room. Chorus, band… Main building basement Art. Weight lifting was part of physical education. Big field for football and separate field. Concrete bleachers for football. Parking lot for students with cars. Buses unloaded and loaded in front of school. Desks were whatever teachers wanted
At my son's school (in the US) each child is assigned a chromebook at the beginning of the year and they take it back and forth to school everyday. And his school has over 2000 students.
Most American high schools and middle schools have weight lifting rooms. And yes; at knots American high schools; you can choose your classes for each year; you just have to make sure you take the necessary classes before you graduate.
At my school, we had a fashion/sewing class, audio/visual class, graphic design, weight/heavy-lift class, photography class, robotic class/club, and more that I can't think of right now and at my school we can choose our subjects.
Aloha! 🤙Back in my day (80s), weight-lifting was an elective class. I was the only girl in my class period, and on the first day, the boys didn't want to spot me on the bench press (didn't think I was up for it, they wanted me to just do the bar/no weights). The coach/teacher saw this, and came over to me. He told 2 boy students to spot me (one on each end of the bar), and instructed me to do one rep and stop and NOT look at the bar... he had the students rack some more weight on the bar and I kept doing the one rep/stop/rack more weight until the bell rang (class over). I was at 120 pounds on the bar and we only stopped because of the bell. I am 5'0 tall and just benched my body weight. The guys didn't give me any problems after that 😁🤙
Yup in 70’s too, elective, picked own clas schedule to get classes needed to graduate. I had to take 2 maths and one science or visa verse in order to graduate. Easy peasy
The buildings look like they were finished yesterday. Most aren't quite that pristine. It's a lot more laid back than I remember it.
My high school was built in the 1960s. It was three, two-level buildings.
We had about 3,000 students attending when I went there with about 450 in my class year.
Our school started at 7:45am and we got out at 2:30pm. We had 8 or 9 periods (classes) each day.
P.E. or Gym classes had elective choices, starting sophomore year, where you could choose the type of physical education you wanted. Like normal PE, weight lifting, or aerobics.
My highschool, in Westport, MA., was built in the 1950's, and had 400 students. My graduating class had 97 students. The teachers did know everyone, and that meant that students who were the trouble makers.
This sounds like mine. In a rural area, but they bused kids from about a 90 mile radius (farm kids). They said they used the time to do homework, etc., so not wasted. We even had two schedules, either like yours (perhaps a few minutes different on either end), or a later one so classes not too crowded.
The district I work for in Texas - we give every kid an iPad or laptop in the district. We have around 32,400 students. Pre-Kinder & Kinder get iPads, 1st grade - 12th grade all are issued laptops and use them all the time during school.
Hi guys! The average high school in Fort Worth, Texas had about 2000 students in 1970. Mine had 2500. Y'all have a good one.
I had 375 people in my graduating class. We usually call them classes and no groups. The blogger was a high school junior. He was around 16 or 17 years old.
My HS back in the 90's.
9th grade(Freshman): 300 kids.
10th (Sophomore): 200.
11th (Junior): 75
12Th (Senior): 35.
The highschool I graduated from had a student population of 2000+ students grades 9-12. Senior graduation group was 400 students.
My graduating class had around 100 students. Our school day ran from 8:30-3:00; we took six courses a semester but studied only five of them each day. This was because we had a unique “rotating” schedule to accommodate a social work class that did field work once a week; the schedule rotated so the students wouldn’t skip the same classes every week.
My graduate classes was 542 and my high school was 2,oo3 attendees. Also my school started at 7: 30 in the morning and ended at 2:45 in the afternoon. Because I played sports in high school sometime I finish my school date around 5:00pm in the evening.
My graduating class had about 1100 kids. We had a gym, weight room, swimming pool, tennis courts, football field, soccer field, band practice field, baseball field, and a soccer field. We also had 3 cafeterias with each being on a different part of campus.
Believe this is Kamiak HS north of Seattle not too far from Canada.
I graduated from high school in 1984. I lived in a town with 1800 people. in my graduating class there were 35 students and I was related to everyone either by blood or by marriage
I'm going to guess Washington state is where this high school is located. Living in Ohio, I've never seen that many Americans from asian descent in One school. To be honest, I think we had one asian american in our whole school district.
The dude Is from Seattle so maybe there's a big ass Asian population over there.
About 6% of the city of Seattle is Chinese according to wiki. Chinese communities are big in most major cities, no surprise. From Ohio too, only knew about 8 ethnically Chinese kids in high school.
Kamaik High School
Mukilteo, Washington
just north of Seattle
"Hey, I'm doing a vlog tomorrow. Everybody remember to act natural."
I went to a really small school. My graduating class had 58.
My mom went to an even smaller school. Her graduating class had 21.
This year, the senior class at my Mom’s old school has twelve.
In high school you have main subjects like: math, science, social studies, history, language arts/English( parts of speech, essays, Shakespeare, study of the english language basically)government. Then you have classes that they call electives, like, different types of art, weight training, cooking, medical, business, etc…. You get 4 main courses and then you can pick like 2 electives. After every report card, when the ending of a semester (a certain amount of weeks of learning) you can change your electives. There are at least 3 semesters per year, only certain electives are available for each grade. 9th grade(freshman, first year of high school 14-15years old), 10th grade(sophomore, 2nd year of high school 15-16yr olds), 11th grade(junior, third year of high school 16-17, 12th grade( senior, last year of high school, Graduation 17-18yrs old).
Our two primary high schools are Bentonville High with 3,892 total students (2022) and Bentonville West with 2,158 students (2022), the new high school. Bentonville is a fairly affluent town, with the Walmart headquarters here, so both schools have top notch facilities. Each high school has more kids than some of the smaller towns in Arkansas have in total population, so you can imagine that the high schools there are much smaller. The schools are funded by a combination of local and state taxes, which means the quality varies from city to city.
My graduating class in a small rural area was still 2300. I got to spend 12 weeks in Exeter England. Ohh life in England is so much calmer. In the US we have 2 or 3 weeks of a certain sport. Swimming, Ice hockey, track, softball. It's always been my favorite class. 😂 Physical Education. They even take us bowling! 😂
I graduated HS in 1982, and we had a few classes we could select from along with courses we had to take. We had a weight room back then too. I graduated HS a semester early then went to college right away.
Last year during my freshman year, there were 700 freshmans.
My graduating class had about 1200... and we only had 11th and 12th grade at that school with over 2500 students total
My highschoool goes from 7:30-2:40(the middle school is 8-3:15). There are 8 total classes, with block scheduling so there are four classes every day- Monday/Wednesday and Tuesday/Thursday, with Friday alternating every week. Usually we can request classes, but it is not guaranteed and there are required ones.
Several states switched to the biodegradable food container it’s more room you can put stuff in. The sectioned lunch trays are only used for elementary school kids and the military. Elementary students learn about portion sizes and nutrition as the years go so the sectioned parts help teach that. Everywhere else are the large biodegradable containers. Plastic is less common now.
Usually there are six periods in a school day. There are required classes but over the four years there is room for a few electives. Requirements differ from state to state, but there is a core curriculum for all schools in all states. In my state, where I taught high school for 35 years, the requirements were 3 yrs of Math (Algebra 1, Algebra II and Geometry), although two different levels of Calculus are also offered for those students who took Algebra I in grade 8; 4 years of History/Social Studies, 4 years of English, 1 year of Phys Ed, 1 semester of Health; 2 years of a second language, 2 years of a Lab Science, and 1 year each of Art or Music and Technology. But those are the requirements for a high school diploma in the general ed. program, but not enough for university entrance. There are also Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate programs that require 4 years of each of the core curriculum including a second language. University-bound students take at least some A.P. or I.B. courses, which are rigorous, university prep classes. If those programs don't exist in a given school, university-bound students will follow the typical college requirements for entrance, which usually include at least 3 years of a second language and 4 years of Math. All students in my high school were required to complete a major thesis-driven History/Social Studies research project/paper at the end of each year.
I taught International Baccalaureate History and German for most of my career. Grades 9 and 10 were I.B. prep, and then grades 11 and 12 were full I.B. At the end of grade 12, students have to take comprehensive exams that cover the last two years of a subject, each exam is usually 2.5 hours long. If a student passes all six exams, they receive an I.B. Diploma which usually comes with some university credits, depending on the university a student plans to attend. The young man in the video didn't really show much of the 'educational content' of his school day, so it's hard to know if he was in a general ed program or some advanced, university prep. By the way, 'Key Club' is usually a school service club. In our school Key Club students were involved in planning school events, ushering school events, working with the administration to solve problems, etc. It might be different in different states, I'm not sure.
Mine had 8 but Tuesday and Wednesday were block period days when each had 4 periods (whichever one you didn't have the previous day) and they were like an hour 20 minutes as opposed to about 40 minutes. The teachers used to use the block days as test prep or actual test days. We went from 8 am- 3 pm. We had 5 minutes to get to each class and an hour lunch. Our school only had one building, though it had a basement, main floor and upper floor. Basement was usually the extracurricular stuff like choir, band, orchestra, wood shop, cooking, art/ceramics, etc.
When I was in school it was 9 periods every day but now I work in a school that is 8 periods 4 each day and it alternates
My high school had four 90 minutes blocks. Same classes in the same time slots for an entire semester. There were two semesters. It was setup to kinda mimic what college would be like so we could get used to that type of schedule. I think my high school has changed its scheduling years after I graduated.
@@LeeAkrish, there are some high schools in my state that have block schedules like yours and others mentioned below. That's pretty common as well. In 35 years of teaching, I never taught in a block schedule.
Wow! I had about 9 periods.
The class size (or year group) really depends on the area the school is in. I went to a few different high schools because we moved around. One of my schools I had 77 students in my grade, another was over 500, another was around 300 and the last one was just over 200. All the required classes and electives were different at all the schools. There really isn't a standard curriculum across the country.
I went to a public high school outside Washington DC in the ‘80s. We had 6 periods per day and my year had 500 graduate (more started the last year, but some dropped out).
My son is a rising 12th grader (ages 17-18) at a private school about 30 miles away from my high school. His class is about 175 students and they have 8 classes per term with 4 classes per day (alternating days). He has a graduation requirement of 2.0 physical education credits, with 1.5 beings required classes and the last being an elective. Weight training is one of those elective options,
Every morning we would all stand up, place our right hand on our heart and say the Pledge of Allegiance together while looking at the American flag which was hung in every classroom and throughout the school
My high School in New Orleans , we had around 14K students
My high school started at 7:05am and we ended at 1:28pm.
This was my high school, it’s in Washington State and built in the 90’s. There are two main buildings, one is 3 stories, the other is 2. There are two lunch rooms (one in each building) a pool, and performing arts building. My graduating class had about 525 students, but pretty sure the classes are larger now.
You do get to pick PE (gym) there was weight training, aerobics, team sports, individual sports and other options that I can’t remember. You also get to pick your electives. When I went there I took Russian as my foreign language and drama and counseling office assistant as electives (just some examples). Great reaction!
My high school had two legit gyms, two swimming pools. I played high school football, soccer, track, baseball. We had a football field, two baseball fields, track, basketball courts etc. It accomodated gymnastics and volleyball as well. A gym is pretty typical. And during PE class (physical education) we definitely did have weights some days.
In my state, Arizona, it is legally required for schools to display the flag, constitution, and the bill of rights in every 7th-12th grade classroom.
In my year alone, we had 1500 people. I live in Maine. I didn’t know everyone personally. But we knew each other by face or name, and it’s fine to join a group and be friendly.
In my last HS year i took weight training honestly one of the best
I think Key Club is a service club. We had it at my high school, but I wasn't part of it. I'm old though (class of 1969). There was a huge controversy one year because parents were moving to get their kids into a high school that had a padded weight room. I will say that we had mandatory swim classes, and the school provided the swimsuits. In my husband's high school, across the country from where I lived, the boys were required to be nude. Not only did the school not provide swimsuits, but also they were not permitted to wear them. That was in Cincinnati, Ohio, and he was part of the class of 1966.
i went to middle and high school on an outside campus and i loved it! i find it so much better. also we only had like 100 maybe less in my grade, and in the whole high school you pretty much knew everyones name
I didn't know of any high schools that had weight rooms when I was in high school, but I graduated in 1966. My high school had about 2200 students. It wasn't a four year high school, in Massachusetts grades 1 through 6 were elementary school, 7 through 9 were junior high school and 10 through 12 were high school.
At my school in Texas we had a graduating class of about 1,000. Our day would start at 7:15 and end at 2:55. We had 7 classes but we’d days would only be odd numbered classes. Thursday would be our even numbered classes with a lute arrival, so we wouldn’t have to start until 9:15.
also you can choose classes, so classes like weight training and Graphic Arts are electives
My high school went from 7:55am to 2:55pm. We had 7 classes per day plus a 35 minute lunch. But I graduated in 1995 so I’m sure it’s different now.
I’m pretty sure all schools have the flag in every classroom. I had it in my classrooms and my kids had it in their classrooms. It gets to the place where you don’t even notice it anymore.
The look she gave when he said he wanted a tortoise was so funny. Like “absolutely not!” 😂
My high-school started at 7:05
Graduating class of 1998 at Alvin high in Texas was almost 600... about 3k total on campus... Alvin has since split into 3 high schools Alvin, Manvel, Iowa colony, & annexed Nolan Ryan high in Pearland.. Alvin is 1 of the largest campuses in Texas & covers over 50 acres & 10 city blocks.
Nolan Ryan High School sounds awesomely "King of the Hill"
@@briansohr2319 Nolan played for Alvin with my uncle... the old batting order rosters are in The Nolan Ryan Center at Alvin Community College. I went to school with his daughter Wendy... she was 1996 class.
In my high school we had just long tables where 3-4 kids would sit. Also weight training was my favorite class.
In the US, they encourage/suggest/advise that breakfast is the most important part of your day.
I graduated near Dallas, Texas in 1991. Every class in my high school was in one building, couldn't go outside at all. Class was 8:00 am-3:10pm. We had weightlifting class starting in 8th grade but ours was part of PE. We just had gotten a salad bar during my Senior year. We didn't start doing computer classes till 6th grade but the computers were very big and all we studied was how to type fast, the history of computers and a we did a very short study on computer programming but it was nothing like that have now. We had a pep rally every Friday during football season where everyone had the option to either leave to go home an hour early or go to the pep rally. And we played rock-paper-scissors-dynamite back then.
It's been a while but I can still remember a normal school day for me. When I was in school I would get up at 4:30 am to be able to take a shower because my little brother had to get up at 5:30. I would then make him and myself breakfast, make sure he got to his bus on time. I would leave for the city bus, and I had to walk through about 2.4 kilometers of the desert to get to the bus stop. I would get to school at 6:30 an hour before school started, I had to do it that way or I would be an hour late because the city bus only ran every 2 hours. We were in school until 2 pm then I would walk 3.8 kilometers to work, work until 7 pm then catch the bus home eat dinner go to bed by 11 pm, and repeat it the next day.
I went to small school in western Oklahoma that actually no longer exists called Washita Heights. We had fifteen kids in out graduating class.
There were about 100 in my class. I know there are some schools with a lot more and a lot less.
At my school he had to do a varsity sport to take weightlifting
my hs was in texas and our weight lifting room was huge. a whole building dedicated to weights. not a small garage building like a legit building that could fit like 8 trucks right next to the football field
My High-school was 7:45 to 1:45. Cause the busses had to be ready to go to collect us and then go to the middle schools and collect them and they got out at 2:30. Then they'd take us to our stops and then go to elementary schools that started at 8am and got out at 3:30. But if it was end of school month, and you were a senior, you did not have to attend the last 3 weeks of school as long as you had all your graduation credits. Cause there was zero point for you to be there if you were 100% graduating.
Yep. School started at 7:15 am every morning for me so I was up by 5:45 every day. And now as a 33 year old, I am still up by 5:45am every single day, work or not. Lol. My school was cool, it was literally just two hallways in the shape of a stretched out horseshoe, two floors one hallway each floor. Super easy to get around. From the outside it looks like an airport.
The big room you kept seeing is the common area. My high school used it as the lunch room too, but many schools will have a separate area for eating. The common area was where you'd gather in the morning before the day started, had study hall, waited for the end of the day, etc. Could also be used for lunch as well and this could just be a second lunch room. A school I went to briefly before moving my freshman year had two lunch rooms.
Making breakfast is funny af. My mom made us eggo waffles before school growing up but now as an adult I almost never have breakfast.
My graduating class was 486 people. The girl I walked across the stage at graduation with I had NEVER seen before in the four years of high school with her lol.
My high school also had about 20 different gym classes, body building 1 and 2 being two of them. We had two full workout gyms. I took two gym classes, both semesters, all four years. Loved it. We had soccer/basketball, lifetime sports, international sports, self defense, body building 1 and 2, bicycling/archery, golf conditioning to name a few of the ones I took.
I went to high school from 04-08, so vlogging wouldn't of been as easy. The cameras would've been massive and in your face or just bad quality all around. Def would've done it nowadays with cameras on phone or the tiny gopros.
Key Club is a group who uses service projects to teach leadership to students. It's a common club in many schools here in the US.
My year group had 730+ kids in the middle of Missouri 😂, but that’s pretty rare for mid missouri. School had over 3,000 kids
my school also has weight training. for us we can choose every subject so for language u can choose the type and same thing with history science math etc. its probably the same all over the world. what might be different is that for pe u can choose the type of exercise. so some atheletes dont have pe because theyre on a team or something so their coach just has to sign something saying that they do more than the standard qualification for pe. but not every athlete can qualify. u can choose dance, regular pe, clubs as long as it's school funded, weights, swimming, gymnastics, etc. they're all equally rigorous
I was given the job of getting myself ready as well as cooking breakfast at 6 years old. I had my own alarm clock. We had to cook hot cereal or porridge as it was the easiest to follow directions and cheapest. It was usually cornmeal billed into a porridge called cornmeal mush. Just as tasty as it sounds but it was affordable. I'm an excellent cook now even though my neglectful mother could cook unless it was instant. I guess that's from being exposed to it from a young age. I can go to a restaurant, taste a dish, and go home and recreate it since I was in my mid-twenties. I guess some hardships come great things if you look at it right ❤
ours was 7-2:30 but we had a 30 minute break an hour and a half for lunch cause everyone just drove to fast food places so we needed more time. I don't think I ever ate school food in high school.
We have required classes and then electives that you pick. Weight training is one of them that you can pick
1. The science classes had the two seats at a table at my school
2. My school did the iPads in class for research and things like that
3. My school had vending machines by the cafeteria
4. My graduation class was less than 100 people lol
5. My school has weight training for a PE unit.
6. As far as choosing classes, my experience is we somewhat get to choose things like electives
7. In my experience, the cafe def is cliquey. HS was cliquey but all of us intermingled. We had the ratchet/hood kids, artsy kids, nerdy kids, the smart kids, white boys, the sisterhood (which I was in), etc etc.
8. My school started at 7:35am and ended at 2:45pm.
9. The school clubs are very important! There is Gay-Straight Alliance, Black student Union, organizations for languages, organizations for science, problem solving, yearbook, even one for teaching how to cook healthy food called food revolution.
My graduating class had around 1010 people. My total high school had if i remember, around 4300 students. And I knew most of the kids in my class and a lot in the class behind me. Though i didn't grow up in that state so I didn't know a ton of that class behind me. I grew up in a different state, started high school in a different state. That school had 2000 kids total and i pretty much knew 3/4 of them because i grew up with all the brothers and sisters at all the grade levels. You know everyone's older or younger brother. I was also an athlete so they knew me.
My graduation class had 984 students. There was no way you could know everyone in your class. There were just under 4000 students in my high school. We got to pick our gym classes. My favorites were archery, fencing, and volleyball. Class was from 8:10- 3:40. We did not have an open campus, so you weren’t allowed to leave school, although a fair share of kids could be found at the local sandwich place during school hours.
My undergrad class at college of William and Mary was probably only 1600... Fascinated by kids going to these behemoth high schools
I got to be in the last class allowed off-campus for lunch.
It was great because we were in a major city in LA and there was all kinds of food places everywhere
@@LA_HA last freshman class where there was still a smoking area for seniors... That's unthinkable, anymore... Maybe everywhere is the smoking area, now
@@briansohr2319 haha. Reminds me of a comedian that talked about how smokers are treated like lepers now because they used to be able to smoke everywhere; then there were these nice outside areas that had ash trays and things like that; and now, smokers are huddled in an alley in the back of the building that's a 6 foot square 100 yards away so smoke won't drift near the doors and windows.
haha
@@LA_HA mad long ago... Was 13 as a HS freshman, and didn't smoke... Wouldn't have been allowed to the area, anyway... It did kinda look like prison yard, perfunctory area, though
The creator of the GIF said it's pronounced JIFF like the peanut butter, so that teacher needs to know this & watch the video where he explains it.
Yes when you’re a senior and sometimes a junior you get to choose what classes you take. My junior year i got to choose 1 cause I was planning on going to college. My senior year all but 1 class were ones that I picked. It just depends on how hard you work when you get to that point. I had from 1230 til end of the day off my senior year cause I already had all my classes completed but I had to be back at 3:30 for baseball practice
American highschools have required subjects as well as electives that you get to choose. Weigh-training, programming, various music, art, and athletics, engineering, higher sciences, etc. Are common types of electives. There are also a lot of school clubs.
I went to 2 different highschools, one built in the 1800s, and the other built in 1990. The more recently built one had more advanced elective options such as aronautics and things like that as well as more convenient tech in the classrooms, but the overall experience was pretty similar.
The strength of American education is freedom of choice and exploration. The weakness is the politization that has been building for the past 10+ years.
Most schools have a large cafeteria with different food options, some cooked by the school, while others might look like a mall food court with branded restaurants or their approximation. The older students are often allowed off campus to buy their own lunch.
About the gym in American High School. Most have them. I graduated high school way back in 1989 and they were normal to have back then. They support several after school sports that need gyms. Football, Baseball, Wrestling, Basketball etc.. As a freshman we were required to take Gym. After that weight training was offered as a class in 10th, 11th and 12th grade. As well as elective Gym classes. Most High Schools have many sports teams so i think that is the main reason they are there.
My year group had 1000 people and when we graduated we only had 900 but I went to a school in Texas and it was very big with a pool and multiple buildings and an entire performing arts center attached to it
Key club is literally just a club that volunteers for a bunch of different charities and causes.
I had about 600 students in my graduating class. My high school was similar to this but with a bigger campus
I'm American but I went to a charter school for highschool so I dunno if it is accurate to represent all, but last year consisted of 8 classes, Forensic Science, Art (Drawing), English, Math, Spanish, Game Design, History, and Leadership Skill Development. There was also Guitar for a period, Weight Training was one, Film Studies, Phycology, random stuff like that. Class went from 8:30 - 3:30
I think the main room with the round tables was the center of the quads. Just a place to hang out. Don't think I was a lunch room. But don't know. They said it in the beginning..I will have to go back to see what he said.. it's at 7:27
We went to school at 8.15 to 3.15. I believe. It's been 23 years. I don't remember 😂
My mother used to make biscuits and and if any were left made bread pudding or we put sugar and had after school
In American highschools you have to have 1 period of PE (Physical education) and most of the time is just basically running around or playing sports in a big gymnasium, learning different exercise's, usually they require you to run timed miles. But in a lot of schools they have different PE courses you can do for the required credit. Like sports such as weight training, gymnastics, wrestling, soccer, etc.
My boys have long days. 8:50-4:20 and they have early football practice (American) at 5:45 am and again from 4:20-6pm.
I made breakfast or my mom made breakfast pretty much every morning. Usually, eggs, oatmeal, cream of wheat or something of that level. But in the 80s we were far more on our own than kids these days that are totally sheltered and can't really survive on their own. If your parents worked you cooked or you didn't eat. You learned to cook, laundry, make your own lunch and dinner, cause they weren't always home. And mine were there but like my big brother had ball games and practice so you might get home and they were at an evening game. You starved or you asked your mom to show you a a few things. You learned to make spagehetti, stir fry, sandwiches, eggs, bacon, etc.
Schools typically have physical education class and an art class. And what you do in physical education will vary from volleyball to tennis to yes weights. Also for art it can vary from drawing, to photography. I don't remember what else my school had cause it was a long time ago. But My guess is graphic art is one of the art electives.
My graduating class is around 1,500 students, and I always thought that everyone's schools were that populated. So, it's kind of weird to hear different ig.
Crazy how some people can know almost everybody in their school, but I see new faces in the halls almost every day.
there were also after school activities. and the last bus was 4pm.
If you play a sport, you are automatically signed up for weight training in American Highschool. Sometimes in addition to gym. Sometimes it's in lieu of gym. Depending on the students preference
I think we had about 200 people in my graduation class. I graduated in 2000.. also my town was pretty small. Wikipedia said over 7800 people lived in my town in the year 2000, and a little over 1200 were families.
It must be a growing High School. At the beginning and the end of the video I saw those gray temporary trailers used for extra classrooms.
I eent to high school in Alaska and my graduating class had about 400 people. The Anchage school district built big schools and bused a lot of students to them. We had juinier high and high school in one location lots if students
there was about 480 in my graduating class, 2000 students in the entire high school
