One of the best schools in the country. Great teachers. Great classes. Totally better than all the Hartford high schools combined.
The high-ranking test scores of the school are mainly maintained by the considerably small community of Asian students. The white kids just play sports, flaunt their money and wear clothes THEY KNOW the minorities can't afford. The non-Asian minorities tend to just chill and hang out/get detained at the Loss of Privilege room. Many non-Asian minorities get bused in from Hartford. All 17 of them.
Most of the families these kids come from are in better economic stature compared to a normal family. Yes, that also includes the minorities.
Despite the large racial differences, everyone gets along and just chills. But there is one common denominator among ALL the students; DRAMA. That's right, drama. The school is a festering pit of drama. This drama is often caused by break-ups, anger issues and he-said-she-said stuff.
Also, this is one of the most competitive schools in the state or probably in the country. Although they really don't make it obvious, teachers make it a point that if you do not meet their academic standards, there is no way you will get into college. And if you end up not going to college, you might as well not show up next week and start working at McDonald's. But still, we (the kids at SHS) are not that bad and we push for excellence.

Located in Orono, Maine. Really small school that consistst of hicks and fake bitches. Most people dont care about school and are too busy doing drugs. The academics are good but the sports teams pretty much suck. Most people are dying to leve. But orono is way better than Old Town.

Upper Merion High school is /not/ A bad school, despite what the other two retarded definitions might say. Hell, why does an obscure high school even have a definition? It's a nice place with a new laptop loaning system implemented in 2009, and that's about it. Bullshit on people who make those defs. on things they know nothing about.
Person on Urbandictionary: What the hell is this? Upper Merion High isn't a bad school, I need to make a definition that tells that it isn't what those posers say about my school.

A variation of the famous blumpkin: a woman rides a man whilst he is defecating in a toilet, usually in the reverse cowgirl style, because its weird if they're looking at you.

bethel, connecticut's public high school.
the current definition is wayyyy old. so here’s an update:
we got a new principal in like, 2008. she's known for her manhattan accent, photo-hogging, and acting like she knows who you actually are when she clearly doesn't. we also have two assistant principals for like, no reason. the town is firing teachers because of budget cuts. why don't they fire one of our 3 principals??
the administration is ridiculous. they think the kids who get a's in honors classes are all amazing, and the truants are the bane of the school- even if the "truant" is really badly sick and physically can't go to school and the "straight-a student" blows lines every night to stay awake and finish studying.
students generally aren't so attached to their racial groups like they used to be. it kinda doesn't matter what your last name or skin color is. now, social groups divide and merge depending on drug use, level of sexual activity, taste in music, sports team/club membership or lack thereof, and other such things. most people either don't have a set "group" or are parts of many different circles. in fact, the kids who stick to one general group of friends are considered to be "shy" or "strange".
tl;dr: bethel high school has matured a bit. it still sucks, but i guess that's why the students themselves are slowly coming together.

you know, it's really sad that the kids at bethel high school have more open minds than the people in charge of the school.

Hudson High School is located in Hudson OH. Home to the richest stoners in the world. The schools nick name is Refer High. Not a day goes by that weed is not a topic of someones conversation. At Hudson you can count the number of Stuck up people there are on your hands. The school contradicts itself cause though it is Refer High it is also a very conservative school. No one who goes to Hudson actually enjoys it. In fact, no one in Ohio actually enjoys being there. but these people never move. they stay friends with the same friends and live decently in the same area until the children they produce go to Hudson.
