a school in Harrison, New York. This place has the the same stereotypical hierarchy that all high schools do, only most of the cliques are plagued by drug use and drinking: there is no one definite group of them. The town itself was ranked the worst place to live in Westchester in 2010, and a huge amount of backlash followed from the arrogant residents of the town.
the teachers themselves are dedicated and good at what they do, but have the tendency to let lazy students veer of course in order to keep engaged students learning. This includes Super Seniors (seniors who didn't graduate and have to do at least an additional year in HHS) and the Druggies, who are more extreme than the rest of the school in drug use. Both of these groups tend to sleep in class, distract the class and occasionally reek havoc. Most teachers belittle these 2 groups for the better good, unless they actually show desire to learn. The school has an 80 year rivalry with Rye, and has been on a 10 year losing streak, and has been plagued by scandal mostly with the past decade.

Harrison High School is a place where half of the school is made up of "popular" rich kids, druggies, AP kids, and athletic kids, and the other half is the nerd/geek community who don't care what the other half thinks. Find someone who hasnt drunk or done drugs is like finding a unicorn.
