garden city

An upper middle class town located in the center of Nassau County, Long Island and known for its, Conservative, Roman-Catholic population. Students at GCHS are known for their work-hard, party-harder mentality, with many getting good grades, being sick at some sport, and then throwing down hard on the weekends. Many sport the preppy look, however their is a growing minority of skaters, goths, and emo kids who stick with each other, but generally everyone gets along pretty nicely. Some live in multi-million dollar plus homes (such as those on the Garden City Golf Club (snob hill), Stewart Avenue, and some in the Estates and Mott) but most live in normal sized 500,000 to million dollar homes on the East Side near Country Life, in the Esates, or in the mott.) Many of the adults are wall street traders, brokers, lawyers, business owners, or doctors. Kids tend to throw down either at a house party or in random outdoor locations. The smart kids and great athletes of gchs tend to end up at Ivy League or similar institutions (Georgetown, Boston College, Notre Dame, NYU, UVA, Lehigh, Bucknell, Loyola, Trinity, Colby, Bowdoin, Haverford, etc.) Other popular choices include Villanova, Fairfield University, and Fordham University. Some at GCHS are stuck up and can be mean but most tend to be pretty laid back and chill. The language of Garden City includes words such as 'shwag' and 'sketchy.' Most athletic recruits are from lax or field hockey, which produce many state championships for the school. Many go on to have jobs similar to their parents, such as Wall Street Jobs and law jobs, but some may deviate from the norm. Overall, GC residents agree that it is a good place to grow up and live.
GC KID: Dude Friday at O'McCallagans was so shwag, i dont remember what happened but I think i hooked up with that sketch field hockey chick and i woke up on McShannahans front lawnn with no clothes and McDooligans longstick.

sixth grade

A grade where everything starts to change.You have just entered middle school, and think you're so cool. Girls have just discovered makeup, but haven't heard of the "natural look." They slap a bottle of foundation on their face, and wear eyeliner that covers their whole eyelid. Guys have discovered that girls don't have cuties. They try to hang out with the popular girls. That. Is. The. Goal. A page of homework feels like the end of you.
Dude: I don't have time to sit down and do homework for 30min!
Dude2: Ikr! I'm going to this awesome party tonight, my mom is letting me stay up late!

Garden City

A mid-upper class town in Eastern Long Island, famous for it's rich Roman Catholic Republican population and homogenous culture. If you see a man of color wandering the streets, you'll be sure to see a man in blue not far behind. The high school culture revolves around both the finest preppy styles (Lilly Pulitzer, Abercrombie etc.)lacrosse and football, with inordinate amounts of funds being provided for such luxuries as a turf football field while the school roofs continue to leak. If you dare to brave the mean streets of Garden City, you will see many a BMW, Mercedes and Lexus. Don't worry if you crash it drunk driving. Daddy will replace it. Be sure to check out one of the local parties, often complete with multiple kegs. Don't worry though. With all these parties students still find their way into Ivy level schools with a little help of their trusty pigskin or lacrosse stick.

Grade Nazi

A student with a grade point average at or above a 4.0 that continuously does their schoolwork, pursues every extra credit opportunity possible, and pesters other students to bring their grades up. A Grade Nazi is often known to have a divine hatred of any grade they’ve received that is less than an A on their final report card. This might be because Hitler’s superior race was the Aryans race – which starts with “A”. Similar to the Grade Warrior and Grade Ninja.
Student 1 - "Dude, have you seen Ambrosia’s grades? She’s got 120% in her 5th hour alone!"

Student 2 - "Yeah, that’s because she’s a Grade Nazi. She complains to me about my average grades all the time."
