A place that we are told that it is better than middle school. It is, socially. The rest is kind of crappy, you sign up for classes that you probably aren't going to get until your Junior or Senior year, when you do get the classes you signed up for, they are the least the ones you wanted. Lots of the things you've learned are the things you already and the new things that that the teachers "teach" you, are usually boring and won't remember unless it is something that you're actually interested in. A lot of the things they teach are the things we are never going to use. The walls are made of crap, depending how old the school is or if you're rich enough and the school always has enough money to buy new technology but not enough to fix some of the parts of the school. The food is kind of crappy sometimes and sometimes, it has it's good days. The dress code is one of the worst things in high school, it surprising that the teachers actually try to enforce it, when they catch wearing something that is against school rules, someone else is walking by with the same thing and getting of scot-free and the girls can wear shirts that show off their boobies but we can't wear sleeveless shirts which isn't fair. Last but not least, dating, that is always fun, when you try to look for someone to date, all you find is the ugly girls in your school and the beautiful ones are usually taken. High school what a wonderful place when it comes to making friends, the rest is nothing but crap.
Guy 1: High school is awesome when it comes to making friends but the rest sucks.

Get the wilsthorpe school mug.Brooks is a college-preparatory co-ed boarding school, founded in 1926, in North Andover, Mass. It has a student teacher ratio of 5: 1, 19 AP classes, and about 350 kids (70% boarding). The school has 13 sport teams that rock the ISL, and especially the rivaling Governer Dummer school.
As with any other New England prep school, Brooks students can be found throwing frisbees around campus, sporting Polo, Lacoste, and Lilly Pulitzer clothing, worshiping Dispatch and Dave Matthews (or Mike Jones and Paul Wall if a resident of Thorne House).
Brooks students rough rigorous academics, athletics, and long, hard days in order to get a diploma from one of the most prestigious prep schools in the country and move on to well reputed colleges.

Get the High school mug.The Island School is a mind, body, and spirit journey that takes students away from traditional high school curriculum and forces them to confront authentic challenges. Classes are designed to allow first-hand engagement with the people and environment of The Bahamas. English, math, environmental art, history, and marine ecology are offered, and each course focuses on the application of knowledge to real-world problems. SCUBA diving, island exploration, and two short kayaking expeditions complement daily morning exercise, science research projects, and campus work that encourages each student to develop leadership and teamwork skills.
This school accepts 48 kids from around the world for the spring or fall semester. The application is very selective and involves numerous essays, transcripts, and teacher reccomdations.
Coastal Ecology, Research, Celestial Navigation, Literature of the sea, History of the Bahamas, and Environmental Art are the courses offered. They are all honors classes.
Scuba Diving, Kayaking, and Community Outreach are other important Elements of the school. Every student becomes certified! Their are two different kayak trips that students go on through out the semester.
Students get to interact with the locals around them, by doing homestays, working with middle school kids once a week, and even getting to do a down island road trip where they become familiar with the whole island of eleuthera
The school has done many things to reduce its ecological footprint on the world. Their is a wind generator, solar panels, and water is collected from cisterns. If water is used to freely, then students find themselves having to shower in the ocean!
I almost forgot to mention the exercise program...every morning at 6:30, morning exercise takes place. The kids can choose running or swimming as their main focuses, and at the end have to either run a half marathon, or swim four miles in the open ocean.
This school is a transformative experience. It gives kids authentic challenges, teaches place based education, and succeeds in helping with leadership.
