The one thing that shocked me the most was them being surprised at the sight of real grass being at a high school.
IKR? You'd think they'd have enough dust issues without adding on dirt sports fields.
We mostly got the dirt or sand ones lol, or artificial. maybe they got real grass from province? I’m from Seoul after all.
@@heejin7583 You saying "I'm from seoul after all" makes me think you're a koreaboo. It is what it is

😂 ㅋㅋㅋ
Public school is wild, you’d just be sitting in the cafeteria& some random kids start fighting while everyone else hypes them up💀
They do the samething in public school it depends I don't think all schools is like that though or this might be a new thing they doing when they should not be.
Dude, you could be chilling in your classroom with the door open and out of no where some random kid would come in and do something weird like fart in the classroom or something 😂😂
fr
in my high school, the week before spring break is "fighting season"
there's always at least two fights a day that week 💀
@@MadMax-us9ih same when we bout to go into summer break we choose who we gonna fight and all gather up in one spot untill they catch us.
I go to school in New York. It's good. I would definitely say our high school is pretty open-minded and freespirited. My school consists of Brazilians, hispanics, blacks, and Asians. Very fewwww white kids go, I have only seen like 4 white kids and they are German transferred. But my school is pretty basic. Used to start at 8:30 now its at 7:50 to 2:50. We now have 9 periods ever since the 8:30 changed to 7:50 am. We have a decent Court yard, no playground. We have a good caf. Big gym. Tenis, football, baseball and track fields. The kids are seen as ghetto but really even my parents admitted that the kids are super hyper and wild but also mature and outspoken. The kids at my school fight randomly and we have security trynna break up the whole thing. Kids cut class but now they do sweeps in the hall where they announce students should be in class and none should be out and any student caught in the halls during a sweep gets a slip. If u get 2/3, slips, u will recieve ics or iss. The halls are also crowded and mad loud, but it's also pretty chill. Many kids in schy are lazy yet most are kids who have attitudes yet surprise teachers with their intelligence. The kids at school are bugged out but they are chill too
Lol just gonna put this out there, but not every high school is like this, and personally, the lunch food sucks...
esp public high schools in low income cities like mine where it's the only one, the only lockers we get are pe lockers and we don't even get plates like that for our lunches, just little cardboard plates you would hold your hot dog in or just hold the plastic bowl itself. there are 2.5k-2.8k??? students going to my high school and I know my high school is meant to only hold a lot less than that. Some classes even have up to 35-50 kids right now because there are more kids in our school than last year and we have a 3 floor building in the front so when it's time to go to class, the stairs clog up with students for the first 2½ minutes or so out of the 5 minutes we have to get to class.
In my highschool; if your not in the lunch line 5 minutes after lunch starts-there won’t be any food left. The fruits are always ethier really squishy, rotting or severely bruised.
Omg yessss
I wouldn't say all school lunches suck, I would say we have some decent food.
@@poigikibobo Fr? My school have 5,000 kids and 3 floors but none of the classes are filled. Maybe it's because of how big your school is? You can easily get lost at mine. I struggle to find some places still lool!
**flashbacks to all the cafeteria fights and chairs thrown** good times.
Tan lol I’m in middle school there are full on brawls in the middle of the stairway when we go to lunch
Tan my school had at least one fight a day. If there wasn’t a fight then it meant that it was a good day lmao
I've never seen a real fight
Last school year we had at least 5 people at our school taken out in handcuffs. They were some lit fights tho.
IS THAT TENDOU AS YOUR PROFILE PICTURE!?!?
Not everyone drives, only those parents who are willing to pay a high car insurance for teen drivers.
Or people like me who's parents made me get a job and pay for my own insurance
Well I drive and I have an old Mercedes Benz my uncle gave me
not everyone but like the majority
I bought my own used car.. they didn't require insurance back then lol
That's in America tbh
What I expected high school would be: *We’re All In This Together!”
What high school actually is like: **fight breaks out on the quad, 3 tests and 2 pop quizzes in one day, someone got pregnant, and intruder drill in case someone comes to school with a gun**
This is america
intruder drill is the worst when ur teacher makes u take the test under the desk
@@bakugokatsuki908 don't catch me slippin now
l m a ooo
There's always a fight in our school pretty much every week but I somehow I always miss them. When the hell does it happen?!!
On our school we have vending machines all over the school and almost everyone eats snacks in class so when it lunch time i don’t eat much.
I wish we had vending machines we only have drink machines and most of the drinks are diet
We don't have vending machines not only in school but everywhere here.. wish we had one especially at my school-_-
Don’t have vending machines in Houston and if we get caught eating or drinking something that isn’t water during class or anywhere else except lunch we get demerits 3 demerits is a detention they also take and throw away your food
Same, we also have a little shop we can buy snacks and drinks from so a lot of kids stock up. I don’t eat lunch so I usually buy chips or something to eat in class if teachers don’t have snacks. Most kids drive out for lunch if they have Votech.
kpopruined mylifeu off topic but bruh kpop ruined my life too I’m stressed about these concert tickets 😩
"How do they eat so little?"
Lol and then there are American students looking at Eastern Asia wondering
"How do they eat so little?"
It's not that we're eating little, it's that the school lunches are nasty do we don't want them. And we sneak snacks during class.
Yeah unless the teacher is really strict I just bring snacks and eat
Lol, I remember people bringing in Cheetos to class everyday and they'd make a business out of it
Because we dont eat in lunch we wait until going home cuz school food sucks or is that just me
Mari DatWeeb i would just eat my snacks while it was lunch and sometimes if I got like a bigger size bag I would give it out to my friends but then other unwanted people would come to ask for some I-
Most American high schools don’t have play grounds lol
yeah just elementary schools lol
Yeah in my middle school, we don't have play grounds.
I’ve seen that particular video on another foreign react channel; the girl explained that it was a very small school, teaching elementary through high school. The high school class itself was pretty small, and it also explains why there was a playground on the property.
@@Kylesb that's pretty epicccc
My high school doesn't, but all the elementary schools did. The middle school has a swing set and some monkey bars but we don't have recess outside anymore so we can only use it when waiting to be picked up. In highschool, people go to the cafeteria/courtyard, the pool, theatre room, or just walk randomly around the school whenever they have free time. Tbh, elementary schools recess was much more fun :(
Most American high schools aren't single level. My high school had 2nd and 3rd floors.
They have no idea that some schools it depends what states does take away their phone now if they not paying attention in class so they get it back until the end of school even some colleges so watchout.
My high school have 4 levels, I'm in East Africa and it is a government school and my middle school was private with 6 levels and very huge
I'm from Europe and our school has 3 floors + kindergarten and the 1st, 2nd, 3rd grader floors, and now they made a new gym so they will be demolishing the old one. The school is also pink, blue, red, green and yellow so it stands out a lot. I-
i have 5 floors + a basement. i have a class in the basement and go to a class in the 5th floor right after. we only have 2 - 3 minutes to get to class 💀
We have 6 floors AND A basement :) NYC kids be like
They forgot about the high school drug dealer
“Thanks for all the likes never thought I was going to get this many likes”
LOL this.
They never disappear, always that one dude walking around with a thick ass jacket asking if you want a hit
@@slayerbllade lmao yes!!!! 😂😂😂😂
This.💀
And this is why my school has security guards but we all hang out with them so we cool.
We didn't have one of those...surprisingly drugs was never an issue. Underage pregnancy, drinking and smoking though.
I feel like these didn't accurately represent high schools in america lol
There's a lot more drugs... and fighting... and crappy lunch food... and no playgrounds...
also you can't record in most classes unless the teacher is superrr chill
For a regular ass student this was pretty accurate, none of the students look like delinquents or anything they looked like average students not to popular or to much of outcasts, with average grades, this definitely represented what the majority of average Highschool students go through, I literally never experienced drugs and alcohol and shit in my Highschool not because there wasn’t any but because I was so average I never hung out around that crowd. They showed the crappy school lunch but I just don’t think they showed how bad it tasted in comparison to how it looks. Playgrounds depend on the Highschool and every single time there was a fight I never got to see it because it was either really short or it was between the really popular failing students.
@@jiayue4408 for me you see drugs and alcohol no matter if u hang with that crowd or not, and there's no specific stereotypical cliques, only difference in grade level. Generally everybody shits on the freshmen, and the rest r fine
Pentaholic well I mean just because it happens at your Highschool doesn’t mean it happens at every Highschool because not every HS is the same, I think every Highschool is different, this didn’t show the extremes (one extreme is drugs fight and etc, the other extreme is grade A food, rich neighborhoods, preppy over the top schools) this showed in middle.
@@jiayue4408 true that but the drug aspect is undoubtedly ubiquitous
Pentaholic oh no it’s definitely everywhere but the amount for which is actually exposed or done by the students is different everywhere. There are drugs at my school definitely, but not everyone is exposed to or influenced by it. On the other hand my father lived in an area of New York that was considered ghetto and there was smoking everywhere you couldn’t hide from it so it depends.
Were was the fight most public schools will have one fight a day
Mine was kinda weird. We either had like 2-3 fights in a day and like a dozen in a week, or we didn’t have any at all. And it’s not like our school was small either. We had about 2,300 people going there.
I graduated a couple of years ago and my high school barely had any
I was just thinking tht lmao
My highschool didn't have alot of fight after seeing dight almost everyday in middle school in highschool it became rare and when it did happen it was mainly gang fights
fights only happen once a month and most people don’t really care in my school
I love that the girl on the left was just venting about her school😂 but to be honest I strongly believe that all students should have a card (like the one shown in the video where the girl used her card) to get in school, so that only students and employees could get in the building and to decrease the risk of incidents and lockdowns.
at my school we have a buzzer we need to ring to get in and i'd honestly prefer a card since i always show up in between classes bc my first two hours are off campus and sometimes i have to wait a long time in the snow to get inside if the secretary is out
Our doors are almost always unlocked, you just have to know which one to open
yeah my school has a scanner thing and everyone including teachers have to scan in with their ID to enter and leave the school
I think so too! None of the schools in my county have an ID scanner but some have installed buzzers which is more frustrating but it's only a few. But because of this pandemic i think it could become even easier to just come to campus as a non-student because students can be wearing masks now making it harder to tell who is who
We have teachersat all doors and if you dont have your photo school ID you have to go through a whole nother door and pay $3 for one in order to get into the school
I didnt realize how big if a deal it is to drive to school 😂😂. We have huge parking lots at my school bc almost all juniors and seniors either drive themselves or get a ride from a Friend
It's not just Asia.
USA' is the one of the only places where kids can drive to school simply because you can't get your driving license before your majority elsewhere in the world.
In Europe everything is at 18yo, the majority.
1. Driving (cars by default aren't set with automatic transmission box, you are obligated to learn how to drive a normal car by standard. It's way more difficult than automatic cars in the USA who are driven like big carting cars.
So you need to engage your full legal responsibility.)
Also very rare are the places in eu, unless you exhiled yourself hermit mode off grid away from everybody, that are are inaccessible with the underground/metro (USA subway?), train or at least the bus in rural areas)
2. drinking (hard) alcohol = liquor (in Germany, Belgium, etc 'soft alcohol' = beer, wine, cider etc, can be drunk at 16), taking the risk to ingage you safety needs your majority.
3. inlist in the army, taking the risk to ingage you safety needs your majority again. (18 for this but alcohol 21, wth USA ?!)
4. gamble money of tokens representing monetary value (lottery, games, scratch tickets, machine slots in casual places)
Exception rights at 21 for entering a casino (because you can gamble at 18 but in casino's you can pawn off heirlooms/real estate etc, so it's in conflict with the 21 law exception to majority for buying/selling real estate
21 also to run for mayor or other elected official.
EDIT ; Clarify and words
@Richard Xaviery Ikr
I'm from Europe and it's a big deal for me too
Ikr we be hanging out in the parking lot playing music and everything. Sometimes if you can get away with it you can sneak and leave for lunch. Those kids do not know how to drive though.
Should look at some of the bigger ones, some of the best high schools in the united states look like small colleges.
IMG , Sierra canyon and bishop gorman
Don't forget Westside 66. Amazing school district that's pretty big in Nebraska. The highschool literally looks like a mini college however it's ruined by crackheads
St. Francis high school in sac, california
Ya at my high school it's one of the best public schools as education goes in my city and there's two buildings that go past the football field for classes for ROTC or mainly medical & engineering classes
Aiman Haiqal all Ik is that IMG and sierra canyon along with other schools like montverde have rlly top tier sports programs
My high school had locker drug raids once a week. And a kid ran the fields with a rotc rifle and got tackled by security. I also had a drug dealer sitting next to me in Spanish class. He tried to sell the entire class shrooms, but it was the dime bag of weed he dropped in front of the teacher that got him expelled. Tons of fights. Teacher arrested for sleeping with a student. School guidance counselor fell after getting pushed in the middle of a mosh pit and started throwing hands 😂😂😥
I got so many crazy stories from my high school it's ridiculous. It was such a Looney school it made it on a short Mtv series. Idk how I survived 😭
That's why I want to do online school lol
OMG one of my teachers got fired for sleeping with a student and a few years later she became a stripper. Then someone accidentally started a fire in the bathroom when they were smoking weed and then put the lit blunt (roach) in the trash can and we had to be evacuated. But fr anybody who says nobody at their school does drugs just lives in their own worlds. Preppy suburban teens do a LOAD of hard drugs that most people in a ghetto dont do/ can't afford.
Drugs? That’s creepy.
fr some kid literally hopped a fence 3x the size of a bus a few days ago and ran until the school police caught up with him all because he told some girl to kill herself. crazy.
An hour lunch is almost mind blowing, at my school we only have 20min to eat
Jada Bennett they give us 5min 👁💧👄💧👁
Ours is 1 hour and 30 mins or 2 hours
Ours is only 30 minutes cause after 45 minutes they said some kids get to risky and start fighting or whatever lol.
mine has 30
we got 30 minutes break but it's more than enough. we get to buy food, eat, talk and walk. i guess it's to allow student going back early. the schools end around 12:30pm to 3.00pm because different courses lead to different time to go home. There are like 8-11 subjects (in 1 year) for different class so yeah, it the depends on how many subject we take. the more subjects taken, the later we go home.
I just want ONE of these Koreans reacting to American school videos to react to like...the average school with bad food, TONS of food, fighting and drugs...the LOUDNESS of a highschool in general is always missing and such lol And that private school is a dream for most of us, also haha
i remember on my last day of highschool, a few of my classmates came in early and set up a skillet and grill in the parking lot. as everyone in the class arrived at school, we all just gathered around, cooked breakfast and hung out. That was an amazing memory.
Bruh my school sucks compared to all the other American ones
Same
My highschool is the middle school building
same
I believe in the 3rd poorest state in GA: Pearson
Bruh my middle school used to be a high school it’s hella big
The size of those lockers is not normal for High Schools in america. Most barely fit one to two books. Like tiny Post Office Boxes lol. Most people avoid using them because they're too far away with the limited time you have to reach your next classes.
KahwahShutseh they don’t even let us touch the lockers💀 which is weird because there’s definitely enough for all of us and they’re all pretty new but you can request one if you want but then you get called to the office and you have to explain whY you want the locker🗿no thank you ill just use my band slot
Well we don't have lockers at ALL. They got rid of them for security reasons
KahwahShutseh that’s how my school is, but now you can ask it use a locker
We had to leave our stuff in our lockers. Book bags and coats were seen as too unsafe to carry around school. They were only semi strict on people sharing lockers. But people did it anyways. Locker checks didn't happen that often
My school has lockers but I don't see anyone use it since we carry our backpacks everywhere. In fact, I don't even know where my locker is because I was assigned one last semester lol
After graduating from a private school ive realized that uniforms are a blessing no matter how ugly they look because just the thought of having to wear a different outfit everyday is such a nightmare to me😂 trust me kids, its much better that way. And regarding appearance as time goes by none of that matters since its just a matter of survival at that point so no one cares how anyone looks. Also, ive realized that being in one class is much better than switching classes for each subject (to me at least) since i created a greater bond with my friends since i was in elementary school till I graduated HS and we’re still as close in uni.
I take it you didn't have many friends or ex boyfriends in your high school years huh? Being stuck in one hell whole for a whole year and off to the next, the next year, not meeting new ppl and their cultures. Wearing the same garments to discourage your creativity and express ones self. I feel like that just cripples your sociability and stifel's your growth.
It’s really not that bad wearing different outfits. No one really pays attention or cares. You can show up in a fancy dress one day and sweats the next. No one cares they are the same way🤷♀️just whatver you feel like which is nice
But you have to wash the same clothes everyday, life is already pretty repetitive for most average people, why make that even worse?
Closer friends, so what? You can reach out to others in public school lol, it's not like you arent as close just because you're at a public school! You meet so many more interesting people and you can tell so much more based on their clothes and such. Also just sitting in a room all day sounds agonizing to me XD
My quick take, sorry if its confusing I have to rush this haha.
York Diaz M.J im sorry if I triggered you in some way but to answer your question, i went to an all girls school and i never did have a boyfriend even outside of school (TMI but idk why you’d ask such things) sorry for what you went through but i dont think a uniform cut my own creativity and self expression because my life was not revolved around my school. Im doing just fine, im able to have my own thoughts and opinions and school was just a part of my life and not my whole life. Anyway, in my opinion i dont think its such a bad thing, uniforms are not only done at school but also at work places and its not uncommon😐
Lauren Strayer everyone to their own i preferred uniforms because i stress on what to wear even when i go and hang out with friends😂cant imagine how i’d stress every morning picking an outfit
TBH i think us american schools ain't that great
They work and that’s about it. It’s only actually solid if you go to a private school.
I think our schools have the perfect balance. They help us grow into individuals, the cost is some academic loss, but it's worth it. If you are a good student you will learn, I am an engineer I regularly outperformed most. I was not hindered, the option was there for me. If we are being honest about 70% of the population will not need such things, it's actually more important for them to find out who they are a develop themselves in there own interest.
One of my best friends was a slacker jock type, he would have had adult life if he was forced to waste all his time on Math stuff, he is a successful person now since schools here allowed him to have time for his own interest. He is racecar mechanic, if the schools were like other countries he'd have no time for his love of cars and he'd be nowhere.
If you're in a nice neighborhood then they can be some of the best in the world. If you're in a ghetto, may god have mercy on your soul.
@@MrSirFluffy
Dude, no.
We obviously aren't.
You should show them British school that is similar to theirs but definitely more western
Literally I think Korean school and British school are similar to a extend but a little bit more western
British school have 5 lessons
British schools have non uniform days so it’s similar to the western
Robin Roscoe My school is in England and our rules are so lax lmao,, We dont have skirt length rules, we’re allowed to wear makeup and dye our hair~ we have 5 periods a day (6hours, including breaks)
KJ714 oh really? There are people at my school with neon hair haha~ Maybe it’s because it’s an art focus school :)
Honestly if there’s no fight in the public school vlog then it’s all fake😂 public schools have fights at least once a day
Or person dancing and acting a fool
Or some random kid yelling in the hallway
Mine doesnt. My public school has like 2-3 fights max a year
Or those kids listening to music at volume 99999999
Min Yoonji or those kids that are walking infront of you and stop in the middle of the cramped hallway and you just have to wait until they start walking again or push them...
it depends on the region you go to school too though because I’m Miami almost every school has a uniform even public school and about the food most people here eat dinner earlier than other countries so we usually don’t have such big lunches
Same, and I am from Brazil.
I go to a city public school lol. This is was different than it is in real life for the county public schools though.
All I really remember from highschool was watching anime on my phone while doing packets, bringing in blankets and a box of cheese it's on testing days and leaving early every other day for my senior privs because I had all the electives I needed.
Senior privs were the best. No mandatory PE class, off-campus lunch, leaving early, etc. We even had a special seating area in the cafeteria for seniors only (it was like a little loft area above the cafe. bathrooms) that had couches and stuff (to be fair it was small and first-come-first-serve, not all of us could fit up there at once).
Omg you're so lucky
Yes, most schools, if not all, have after school classes/programs, but that’s only if you want to go or if your parents want to.
Also, only if you are doing bad in school.
youre probably aware of this but high schools in America vary a lot depending where you're at so I just wanted to share a different experience from what was shown in the vlogs!
the high school I went to had the basics of lockers in the hallway, driving to school, lunch, etc. but while we didn't have a uniform the dress code was VERY strict and enforced every day. there was also a strict no phone policy so no one would be able to vlog even if they wanted to. the administration was very strict and made a bunch of rules for no reason but to assert authority and made high school feel very oppressive for both the teachers and students. we also only had a trained nurse in the building one day a week, although some teachers had a little training/experience to deal with emergencies. on top of all that we had a cockroach problem, not a day went by I didn't see one
my school had a "block schedule" so instead of 7 or 8 classes a day for 45 minutes, we had 4 classes a day for 90 minutes and the classes only lasted half the school year, then we would do 4 new classes for the second half of the year. it's actually been proven to be a worse schedule for learning and even at our school it shower worse test scores but they still insisted it was better for some reason 🤷
Ur school kinda sounds so strict...my school in SoCal doesn’t care at all what you do and most kids show up in tube tops and booty shorts with nothing but their phone and a tiny binder
Block schedules are not for everyone. I went to night college at an Air Force base. Because they never know when they are going to be called out or transferred, you complete an entire class semester in 6-8 weeks. I loved it...but there were definitely some people in the class that struggled a lot.
Not gonna lie some of those high schools looked rlly nice compared to mine, especially the lunches, we get a pizza n mushy bag of apples at mine, I’m hella jealous. Also how common are lockers in high school bc none in my area have them??
They're really common, though at my school you have to pay $10 for one, and they're a third of the size of lockers in the video lol
@@nunyabusiness6450 they're common but in my city where I go to school we share lockers due to the overload of students
They never show the kids who go off campus for lunch
I had to pay for my pe locker even though I've never opened it since the school year started.
Did your bag apples taste like chemicals too??? I swear they always had this chemical taste in them at my school
I went to a British style uniform-wearing super focused on academics type private school. But we still had more of a free environment than the average Korean student. Korea needs to chill, you can have academics & let kids have fun.
In my high school in the uk as soon as you saw a group of people running you knew a fight was happening
“Cheerleading seems fun”
Me: haha... **dies while trying to do a routine w/ stunts** I guess it is 😭
They got the good vlogs that doesn’t make school look like a bunch of crackheads
My school didn't have lockers SMH
I was so disappointed as a teen
U poor thing lol. Here we have lockers from 6th grade cuz we ain't got no place for more
No one uses lockers anymore except atheletes , cheerleaders and band/color guard. But their lockers are either in the gym or the band room not the main hallways
Where do you put your books then?
@@caoimhemg1535 You have them at home and only bring the ones you need in your backpack. Here, lockers are only used to store your shoes, jacket, and your P.E stuf.
ValeriE oh that’s interesting, I’ve been wondering why Americans never use their lockers but it makes sense if they don’t actually need to store their books.
When I was in highschool, the school day started at 7:37am and ended at 2:32pm (weird, I know) with six one-hour long classes, a 30 minute lunch, and five-minute breaks in between each class (lunch began immediately after the class before it, no five-minute "break")
There were two separate lunches, during which we were confined to the lunchroom/cafeteria or the hall imediately outside of it, unless you were going out for lunch (only juniors and seniors were allowed to do this) or in a classroom with a teacher, at their permission
You could wear "whatever you want" so long as it followed the dresscode (shorts/skirts reaching to or beyond fingertips, shoulders and midriff can't be exposed, shirt straps at least 3 finger wide, no hats/hoods/bandanas, etc...)
I once had a korean exchange student at my school. she would always sit with us during lunch,and as soon as she would finish, she would say "bye guys see you tomorrow." and at first we thought that she thought school was over, but she actually just went to class (even though there was still like 20 minutes left of lunch) lol. she's back at korea now, i hope she doesn't give her friends a bad impression of american schools lol
I can’t believe how much videos like these can change your perspective. I wish I’d seen this when I was in high school so I could have appreciated it a bit more!
Public school: Nothing like sitting in a class taking a test and then a couple of the weird kids start running down the hallways screaming, the teacher sighing and shutting the door for another person to take care of it.
South American schools are like a mix of Korean and USA schools, like, we don't change classrooms, we don't have Lookers, we don't have snacks machines, we can't leave the building between classes, is not really an everyday thing to see a student drive to school but we can wear whatever, we can use our phones, we can use a lot of makeup, we have big ass parks (play grounds), we have kioscos (littles markets inside the school), we eat in class too and we don't actually care a lot about our grades lol, a big mix also schools aren't usually as big as the ones in USA, mine was a 500 or less students and is because there's A LOT of different schools like you walk down the street and could count 6 schools in 10 minutes
wait so... do all south korean high schoolers wear uniforms? damn they start school at 9 am?? they're so lucky compared to my high school life where I wake up at 5 am and head to school at 7 am, it the same as in college for me, where I have to wake up early to drive to campus and get good parking
Well theyre at school until like.. 7pm so i dont think thats lucky
Nat C yup and most of them have cram school afterwards and get home very late
I feel bad when I complain that we have school at 8 and finish half past 12 lol
Nigga you probly leave school at 2 pm tf
I wish I could wake up at 5. I have to wake up at 3-4 am, be on the bus by 5, and arrive at the school at 6:30 am. School ends at 3:10 pm and I get home either at 5 pm or 6:30 pm. Half to most of the time, I'm lucky to get 4 or so hours, more or less.
Sorry for any grammar mistakes, its 1 am, my brain stops working properly at 11 pm and I can't sleep.
"What do you think American students are like?"
Them: *S A N D W I C H*
Ahh I miss the high school days when everything was so carefree, the only thing we had to worry about was passing the exams.
In Belgian schools we are allowed to leave the school ground around lunch time (which is 55min) and eat/hangout outside of school. And if you're lucky and the class after lunch is cancelled (maybe teacher is sick etc) then you can stay outside for another 55min. This only applies to public schools, in Catholic and private schools this isn't allowed (and they where uniforms). My friends and I left the school ground to travel to Paris which was 4h to go to the bts concert (we went to go and tell the secretary that we would be absent for the rest of the day and they called our parents and our parents agreed, so we had to bring in a sick note by the next week). And before most schools used to have vending machines (snacks, chips, drinks etc), but some years ago some schools removed their vending machines bcs apparently the snacks weren't healthy. School life in Belgium doesn't exactly look like school in the US, bcs we have our own type of freedom like wearing makeup, leaving school during lunch, choosing what hair style we want, wearing our own clothes etc. While the biggest difference I've seen between belgian schools and American schools was that Americans can drive to school and also film/be on their phones during classes, cheerleading, having a sports team. These are the thing that we don't have or aren't allowed in belgian schools.
them: *they get to choose their lunch?!*
me: are you guys ok
Wait til they hear about the length of summer break...
5:03 at my school someone would either purposefully hit them, slash their tires, or key around their car- but in general who parks like that???
I've had the weird experience of going back to my high school as a (supply) teacher in the UK and it really hadn't changed much. I've also taught English in Korea.
I guess the big difference in UK public schools vs American is we wear uniforms and you only chose your subjects after your 3rd year of high school, and mandatory school finishes at 16. School starts 8:45 with classes from 9am to about 4pm/4:30pm with 5 classes per day and the only subjects you have to keep through to your final year are English, Maths and Science.
The big difference between the UK and Korean school is I cannot for the life of me remember ever doing homework other than coursework and after school classes or afterschool academies just don't exist here. Also, there is NO contact allowed outside of schools between teachers and parents or students. Students absolutely cannot have their teacher's email address or phone number. I felt so mean in Korea when students wanted to add me on kakao and I said no.
Westerners value individuality
Which is not always a good thing. Look at the Covid rates between Korea and the U.S.
@@BlueMeaney49 or look at Korea vs Australia... Not sure the relatability to this topic here tho. But Hope u n yours are safe either way
This video made me feel good about my school. My school you can wear whatever you want, you can go off campus for lunch, there are good lighting and windows EVERYWHERE, there are like never fights, and the atmosphere is rly good. We have a lot of freedom at my school
👍 close to my school except I’m on a archery team and I don’t have to pay for lunch
What American public school are they showing I would LOVE to eat that lunch. My school has half frozen chicken nuggets and slushy chocolate milk
Her reaction to the guy driving to school, girl I feel you lmao I went to a School in a very nice neighborhood where almost everyone was white&rich so come my senior everyone was driving ... but me lol
When I was in high school no one really at much at lunch since the break felt too short to both eat and socialize. Most kids would snack during classes and just do whatever during lunch.
It’s American football not rugby
we also have rugby and soccer sports at our high school too...
My school:
Students that from home have to be school before 7:10 a.m. And the students that stay at school (Boarding school) have to be at the place we gathering before 7a.m.
Study start at:
7:30 but 8:00 for Sunday since the assembly is longer
Lunch break? :
9:30 a.m. (13&14&15 years old students)
10:00 a.m. (16&17 years old students)
It's was 20 minutes but the Principal change it to 30 minutes 😆
Go home:
1:50 p.m. But 3:30 on Wednesday
So... I think my school is not that rough
UNIFORM?
Of course, if you don't want to wear it. You can go to the Principal office cause you the only person in the school that didn't wear it and many students will look at u. Imagine how much anxiety that you gained by not wearing a uniform 😂
My school :
you have to wear at full uniform you can't pick what you want to wear , and each subject last for 1 hour and we have 3 breaks the first break is the usually i eat my lunch 9:30am we don't eat lunch at afternoon we just sat in our desk for like 1 hour depending if you're not a outdoor person my school life here is very boring compared to those 2 coutries , also we start school at 7:20 am in the morning til 3:50 pm afternoon i'm from philippines btw and our bowl in our comfort room is full of poops you can see how much students here are aren't disiplined
@@yennie3209 wow I'm from Malaysia hello neighbour and it's every schools have that kind of kids that didn't know how to flash after using the toilet 🙄 and I hope you have a great school memories and catch your dreams
The girl on the left is so funny! 😂
many people complain about wearing a uniform, but i feel like knowing what you would have to wear every morning and not looking for clothes is much more timesaving and easier. i’ve always wanted to actually wear a uniform.
sameeee! It was kinda a hassle having to choose clothes every morning. I wanted to wear a uniform too lol
God they’re in school for so long I usually enter at 8am and come out at 11:45am
Same, except go home at 12:45
Damn must be a senior. I did the same my senior year when I went to school from 8:45am to 12:45pm
But...that's why their country is the most technologically advanced in the world. Education.
videos like this make you appreciate things. i complain about school so much but the freedom we have compared to korean schools (maybe not all) with like wearing our own clothes, wearing makeup, taking electives, etc makes me appreciate school much more lol.
I don’t know if my school was just shit but they should react to real schools
This is was my high school schedule, as much as I remember.
8:30am-3pm
~1hr10min classes. 5min break in between classes, except for lunch which was either 30 or 40 mins.
I was in concert and jazz band which were extracurricular activities. So everyday we either got up super early for rehearsal before school, or stayed late for rehearsal after school.
That's one thing that most of these high school videos miss out on, that students can participate in clubs and extracurricular stuff (asides from sports). It can help as something to put on your resume for admission to good universities and stuff like that.
Girl in the video: we have 8 classes
Girl reacting: I’m so jealous
Like didn’t u say u had 7 classes akskd
Maybe she’s jealous because she wants more classes? That’s what I was thinking anyways
I thought they were saying that to the 45 mins classes part
Daniel Mardirosian maybe😭
Another video that actually holds up. This is a good one to go by. Good video 👍🏾
they should see the ghetto side- LMAO fights every week
My public school in California:
6 classes per day (seniors can have 4/5 classes, and you can also choose to have 7 or 8 or take other classes at a college)
56 minutes each class (omg I hate this)
7 minutes to walk to the next class
one 13 minute snack break in the morning,
30 minutes of lunchtime (omg I hate this too)
school starts at 8:00 (or 7:00 for some), ends at 2:55 (or at different times for people taking a different number of classes).
So,
I took 6 classes for my Freshman year,
8 classes for my Sophomore year (school started 7:00 and ended 6:25 for me)
6 classes plus a class at a college (2 and 1/2 hours) for my Junior year,
4/5 classes and a class at a college for my Senior year.
So everything's different for schools in different places.
I really hate the fact that there are 56 minutes for each class (a bit too long) and that the 7 minutes allowed is to walk across the whole campus to another class (ahhhhhhhhhhhhh)
Ok at my high school. We have 4 classes a day(A and B days), each one is 1 hour and 45 minutes long. We only get 5 minute break to ONLY get to our next class. We have a dress code(laid back but enforced for certain things). A three story school with tiring stairs you have to walk up and down each day. We only get 25-30 minutes to eat lunch. No snack bar, but we have about 3 vending machines in the school in total. There's no playground for free time(NO FREE TIME EVER), get our phones taken away for the rest of the day if we're caught. This is in Savannah, Georgia, United States. Savannah Arts Academy. The schools in movies and TV shows are all false and just not accurate. This video/vlog is not at all accurate to schools in Georgia, just saying. Not sure about other schools but that's not how it is here
i had the same in Canada (the periods, length and breaks) except we a had longer lunches and teachers didn't care if we ate or had our phones in class.
God damn you weren't blessed ig
xxDibellaxx no I was not but it's a REALLY good school. I think we're one of the top school(top 5 I think) of high schools for academics in the US or in Georgia not sure which though. We have a rule that if your GPA is lower than an 80 you are kicked out cause we have an enforced academic rule. The way you get in is on your academics and also your auditions for your major(I.e music, theater, visual arts, communications), we're an arts school.
Lol you must see the algerian high schools i am half korean and i live in algeria in the public high schools you can wear what you want but you can't wear skirt or ripped jeans or shorts plus you need to wear a white blouse in the top of your clothes also we start school at 8 and we finich at 16:30 and 17:30 in Sunday and we have a lunch break (we don't have a cafeteria so you go to your house and return in 13:15 13:30 we start the class) and we learn English arabic and french and math, science, technology, history and geography, music, art,information, physics and you can also learn Spanish and practice sports if you wanted even that we study a lot but we study 20% and laugh and play in the classroom 80%😂even that the teachers keep yelling but we keep playing ✌🏻lol i always wanted to study in korea wich me luck so i can continue my dream ❤️💕✨
Dude,you haven't seen an Indian school yet😑
Agreed
if I showed them a day in the life of my school day they would change their mind so quick about American public schools.
I went to a public high school. We didn’t wear uniforms at my school when i attended, but my youngest brother went after i graduated and the new principal implemented them. We had 7 classes too. Each about 50 minutes with a 5 minute period to get to your next class and a 55 minute lunch. Except for Wednesday’s and Thursdays where we would have odd numbered classes on Wednesday and then come to school two hours later on Thursday (the teachers and faculty would have staff meetings) and have even numbered classes for about 1.5 hr. The lunch period arrangement changed over my years of attending. My school was divided into separate “houses”, each with a different academic focus. There was one for computer science, another for geo-engineering, another for STEM, one for liberal arts and then mines was for visual and performing arts. One or two houses would share a lunch period, so there was A, B or C lunch, but so many ppl would skip classes to go to lunch with their friends so they went down to two and then ultimately to one. Juniors and Seniors were allowed to go off campus if they wanted to and you would show your badge to the campus police officers to be let off the lot.
My high school had 2 stories. We also had tennis courts, soccer/rugby, and football fields. We had 2 gyms. One was smaller than the other. Lockers where optional but they where all in the freshman hall so none used them. We also had a cafe where you could buy coffee and food. Upperclassmen also had the option of going off campus for lunch. We had 4 90 minutes classes each day and 30 minute lunches. School started at 9 I believe and ended at 4:20. 2 years of a foreign language was a requirement (German, Spanish, French, ASL, or Mandarin).
Fun fact:
I'm Italian and in my school you can drive your car, you can dress how you like (except shorts and skirts), you can put make up and do your hair how you want.
*BUT* there aren't lockers for the books, for every subject we have a single classroom. Every class has the same students so we don't change class every 50 minutes, but we wait for the teacher.
Every morning school starts at 8:00, but you just enter in and go directly to your class.
The only subject they let us choose are french or spanish, the other 10 you have to do it, LOL (In my school there are 11 subjects, I do the Alberghiero, school for who wants to become a chef, a barman or a waiter).
There aren't clubs, we don't have a cafètteria but our cooking class that we have two times at week but just once we eat, because we are the ones that cook.
Our teachers most of them have preferences, and sadly we don't have anymore a breaktime. We HAD just one, but they took it and said to eat when you want but you have to follow the lesson still. In the bathroom you can go just three times and your name will be wrote by the teacher on a paper.
Good thing is we go out three days at 13:00 and two days at 13:50.
Until now we went until saturday but maybe it will change.
Private school is smaller classes, seniors (at my school) eat outside of the cafeteria in this lounge area, we wear polos and sweaters, and don’t have to make up for snow days into June.
When I was in high school I was at school from 7:45 to 4:15 for some years. Other years it was 8:40 to 4:15 or 7:45 to 3:30 depending on class schedule. Lunch was 45-50 minutes, and you had 5 minutes to get from class to class. After school was sports or clubs. The sports and clubs are sorta for students to enjoy them, but sports also can get the school more recognition or funding/donations and are promoted as a way for kids to have better college resumes
The security thing is just because we're all terrified someone might go nuts and shoot up a school. And this is honestly one of the nicest public schools I've ever see, mine has kids vaping and smoking weed in the bathrooms and a couple of fights a day. Also, the no uniform thing doesn't mean we can where whatever unless you're a guy. Girls still get SUPER policed and kicked out of classes a lot bc the dress codes are hella vague and sometimes teachers just don't like your clothes so they send you to the office. I once wore a sweater all year, and a week before school ended I got dress coded for it bc they said it was cut too short. And I hadn't grown out of it either, it fit exactly the same as when I got it bc I'm short. I missed half an exam for that.
Personally my school(American) was different. Normally had 7 classes from 8:00am to 3:00 or 4:00pm. Most classes were 45-50 minutes long with 5 minute breaks in between to switch classes. Lunch was 20-30 minutes and the food was decent. We could not choose what we wanted. Makeup and clothes did have rules(length, phrases, boldness, etc.). Phones could be kept in locker or bag but if seen during class they were taken, The length of time depended on the teacher. Plus our library was small and honestly sucked. Only outside time was for Phy Ed. Never had a playground at a high school unless it was k-12. Extracurriculars were encouraged if not pushed. Even parking for self drivers was restricted.
I literally took a city bus -> subway train -> school bus to get to school and I never missed a day of school. I liked it because I got to talk to friends that I won't see because we don't have the same classes.
You guys are so lucky with the amount of class time you have, we have 90 minute classes and the breaks we get is to change class rooms. School starts at 7:28 am and ends at 2:20 pm.
Some points about American high schools that I would like to share that weren't covered in these vlogs:
1: A lot of American high schools aren't 1 floor buildings. My high school alone had 6 floors & was in the process of adding a 7th floor when I graduated. 1 floor buildings are usually found in small towns & even then they're rare. This also applies to most middle schools & even some elementary schools. Hell, out of the 5 schools I ended up going to, only 2 were 1 floor buildings & even one of those were in the process of adding an additional floor by the time I left.
2: Speaking of school buildings, usually, if you do happen to find a 1 floor building school in bigger cities in America, you'll more than likely see 3-4 rows of trailer-like buildings next to them. Those buildings are called "Portables" & are actually classrooms. Typically for any grades higher than 1st or 2nd grade (depends on the school). These buildings are freezing in the winter the further you get into the Midwest & Northern sides of the US. They are not fun.
3: Most high schools in the US have a student drug dealer. If you're school was like mine, you more than likely have several of these student dealers. Especially in public schools. Most don't get caught & we honestly don't know how. But we don't question it.
4: Public schools in the US are actually tuition free. Nobody in the public school system will pay tuition from Kindergarten to 12th grade. Some schools even include Pre-school. So we don't have to pay tuition for the first 13-14yrs of our educational careers. It's lit.
5: Private schools & Public schools are EXTREMELY different from each other. I have never been to a private school myself, but I had friends that had attended Private schools & they have told me that the differences between the two are astronomical. This is mainly because Public schools are just wild in general. An actual example of this is when my friend's Private school was planning their junior trip to France, my Public school was "fixing" the bullet holes & cracks in our windows by slapping on some duct tape & calling it good.
6: In relation to #5 with Public schools being wild: In many Public schools, fights always break out. And I mean ALWAYS. You won't go a week without hearing about a fight breaking out. Sometimes the fights become small riots depending on the students. My school had small riots monthly. And they got rough. One teacher even died from a stress induced heart attack because he was trying to break up a fight before it turned into a small riot. It was not a fun day for anyone.
7: Again, in relation to #5: Crazy shit will always happen in Public schools. You won't know when & you won't know why. But your best bet is just not to question it. My school, again, is a perfect example of this. There were several times random animals were let loose in my school. From cats, dogs, birds, snakes. There was even a peacock once that had escaped from our local zoo. There was a student who set up a portable tattoo shop in the back of my history class my Freshman year. And even I, myself, ended up helping a girl give birth in the middle of my sophomore algebra class. On the plus side, it was a rather quick birth. It was an interesting day to say the least.
8: Lastly, we actually have no choice in how small our lunches are & we almost never get full off of what they give us. It's honestly quite sad & a lot of us even steal more food from the cafeteria because we are rather hungry.
My school was 8am-2:35pm, 7 classes, 1500 students total. I would say it was a mix between the first and second school because it was a public school with more funding. Fun fact, I had an assigned locker but I never went to it in all 4 years of school (except on the last day of each year when you had to unlock it for the end of year cleaning... but I always had to go to the secretary to get my locker combination first)
In Italy, we start school at 8am and we finish at 2 pm. We don't have clubs but some schools has a chorus and we don't have academies, we have people that come to your house to help you with the subjects your struggling with. Hope you enjoyyy
It's amazing how much American high schools differ in each state. My high school experience was not at all like the ones in the video! Growing up watching American films where the high school had larger body length size lockers, parking lots for students, and a possible yellow school bus- that was what I thought my high school would be like.
In my school. Morning sched Students need to woke at 4am and go to school at 5am. 5:40 is first bell Meaning the ceremony is preparing. 5:45 is a very late time, meaning the ceremony is already started. At 6am , students clean the classroom first, then the attendance committee will do their thing. At 6:30 students will start the lessons. 8:30- 9:00 - freshman's break time. 9:15- 9:45 - sophomores break time. The seniors are on separated school. 11-school's over. It depends if students have other lessons sched. But they're limit time on school is 12- 2pm. Non sched students need to wake up at 11, 12 is the start of classes (sometimes they have special subject so they need to go before 10 on school) their ceremony will start on each classrooms unlike the morning sched students doing ceremony on the school quadrangle. 5pm is schools over for them. But sometimes they have subj sched (6pm). And now for me, a senior, we woke up at 4am and then at 6pm is our schools over -_- theres nothing like students studying on school because students are not allowed on school on 7pm
Selective Enrollment schools and IB schools are so different as well. lots of study, stricter rules and different vibes while still having shitty food, weird eating times, fights etc
Well, technically all schools are different because at my school we wear uniforms, don't have lockers, have 6 classes each day, and some classes last 70 minutes. And we start school at 7:30 am and finish at 5:00 pm.
ㅋㅋㅋㅋ 모교 후배분이 나와서 더 재밌게 봤어요! 졸업하자마자 후배분이 입으신 교복으로 바뀌어서 졸업생들이 무척 부러워 했었는데.. 교칙에 대한 얘기를 들어보니 재학중일 때보다 오히려 더 규제하는 부분이 많은 것 같아 놀라웠어요. (저는 자주 맨투맨 위에 입고 있었는데 몇번 혼나고 말았던.. 물론 교칙위반이었지만욬ㅋㅋ 저 입학할 때 교칙에 이성교제 금지도 있었ㅋㅋㅋㅋ) 몇년 전에 한국 들렀을 때 학교 찾아갔다가 길목이 너무 바껴서 길 잃었는데 학교는 또 거의 바뀐거 없던게 생각나기도 하고, 학교 다닐 때 기억들도 떠오르고 그래서 즐거웠어요. 영상 감사해요. =)
i went to a pretty small public high school (about 500 students all together). we werw allowed to drive to school if we got a parking pass, or ride the bus. we had free breakfast, and the lunch was usually bigger that what i saw in these videos, and also free. you could bring your own too, though. we had 7 classes a day, 50-55 mins each, 5 mins between classes, a 10 minute break after 5th period, and 45-50 min lunch (you could eat inside or outside). the only students who got full sized lockers were seniors, everyone else got half wall lockers. obviously no uniform, but still had a dress code (no tank tops, crop tops, leggings/yoga pants, or jeans with rips) but colored hair and tattoos/piercings were allowed. and so was pda as long as you werent straight up making out in the hallway (you were allowed to kiss and hold hands and stuff). girls smoked cigarettes in the bathrooms (even though it isnt allowed), and we were pretty close with all of our teachers. we would have occasional lockdowns and drug checks where police would bring in dogs, too. we were absolutely NOT allowed to have our phones out unless it was in art class and that was just because the art teacher didnt mind. you have to have a certain amount of credits to graduate (i cant remember but i think 27? 1 per class over 4 years, and u could have a free period as a senior). and we got to chose our own electives.
The way my school is so similar to the korean schools. We go in at 8 am and leave at 3pm. We have 5 classes a day and they’re an hour long each. One break which is 10 minutes long and a lunch with is and hour and five minutes long. Uniform is a must! For girls it changes depending on the grade. Kindergarten-5th grade wear jumpers, 6th-9th wear skirts shirts and ties and your shirt must have a school crest on the top pocket. Grades 10-12 wear a different colour skirt, shirts, vests, ties, stockings and crests! No makeup at all, no weave or extensions, no cell phones or any electrical devices (smart watches, cameras etc) no painted nails. Skirts must be 3 inches belong the knees as well! Shoes must be black for males and females. Socks must be either white, navy blue or green. Girls socks must be thigh high. It sounds horrible but it was cool 😂
One thing I will always be grateful for is the fact that my parents loaned me a beater car during my school years. Driving to school and work was so much better than having my parents take me, in a teenager's perspective
Trust me, the cafeteria lunches suck! Most times I got hungry after my next 2 periods (classes) ended. A lot of people bring lunches from home to eat. I'm so glad that I graduated.
I like the fact that they get to see a glance what it’s like to be in a American High school. Because in most places around the world it’s a lot different to our own. Most of High Schools do have strict codes and rules to follow while others are less strict. The only thing I can’t say I like is that they never really went into detail that most of the schools have different systems, requirements, etc. from each other. Overall I do like the video they presented to them as a way to show them America’s High Schools.
In our country, school starts at 7:30am, and ends at 12:30pm from Year 1 up until Year 10. We do have extra classes in the afternoon (once you get into secondary school), but that depends on the teacher. And it's usually not everyday, maybe like once or twice a week. It all really depends if you need any remedial hours or not.
Most of indonesian public school start at 06.30-02.00, so we have to wake up really early or you'll be late
My highschool started at 7:25am and we only had 30mins for lunch and 5min intervals to get to each class. No breaks at all. A lot of us were close with our teachers but there's a rule you can't be in personal contact until you graduate. Though we felt like some of them were like family. We do have dress codes but didn't have uniforms. Dress codes change depending on the trends that are going on too. My highschool was all one floor but it was made in the 30s and added on to. Not all schools have lockers or even tall ones. Some have 2 people to a locker. My school had the tall lockers but other schools around us had half the size. We hardly were allowed at our lockers and made to quickly go to class. Highschool was stressful lol but it is what you make it.
I would love to see them react to southern public high schools. The one I went to, kids were always getting into fights or being flipped over tables. We couldn’t bring our own water bottles because people thought they were filled with vodka. The halls were always overcrowded and loud so I was too scared to use my locker. Not enough time either.
In my school:
1) wake up: 5:50 a.m.
2) go to school: 6:00 a.m.
3) assembly starts: 6:20 a.m.~ 6:30 a.m.
4) classes start: 6:30 a.m.
(Breakfast: 10:00 a.m.)
(Lunch: 1:20 p.m.)
* 20 minutes each*
5) classes end: 5:30 p.m.
6) late class/tuition: 6:00 p.m. ~ 7:30 p.m.
My life...😢
wtf i can't stand tha't schedule
My high school had police and metal detectors we had to go through every morning when entering the building 💀
