Southwest High School (or Southwest Senior High) is a high school in the Linden Hills neighborhood of Minneapolis, Minnesota. It's considered the best public high school in the city. It's in the top 200 high schools in the country according to Newsweek, but Newsweek rankings are kinda messed up if you ask me. It's still a pretty good school.
50% of Southwest students are in the IB program. That means 50% of Southwest students were in the top 20% of their 8th grade class. So in a way Southwest is kind of a magnet school, or at least it tends to attract the upper/upper middle class kids from around the city. It's still diverse though and has a lot of students from the lower-income bracket. It is also ethnically diverse despite having the lowest Hmong and Somali populations of any high school in the city.
Most of the athletic teams kind of suck, but Southwest tends to do well at track and soccer. About half the kids at the school are "on" cross-country, but only 100 or so actually show up.
As for culture... I'd say that Southwest is pretty diverse lol. There's a HUGE subculture of artsy theatre kids. There's practically a play every week. But there's also a lot of trendy people and some ghetto people. Most people are pretty normal though. People drink and smoke weed but they don't really talk about it, and harder drugs are definitely rare.
But at Southwest, drinking and smoking don't really make you cool... being cool is more like acting really really white. Like, eating organic food and watching Wes Anderson movies. It's pretty strange for a high school. but i dunno. Also, Southwest students are more humanities focused.
In conclusion, Southwest is a pretty good place to go to high school. Especially if you are a good smart kid and you like theatre and all of that. For more examples of how cool Southwest kids like to act, see www.stuffwhitepeoplelike.com ...it's pretty much the exact same haha.

Basically like Public High School, but worse. You have to wear itchy, uncomfortable uniforms that make you look like a loser when you are out in public. Also, everyone in the school is the same gender, so if you are a boy, you get to hang out with those sweaty bastards for 4 years. You have 0 chance over ever having fun at a Catholic High school. Half of your classes are taught by priests or nuns, and they will expel your ass for even the tiniest thing. Learning religion is a crock. Unless you plan on becoming a priest when you graduate, these classes are useless. All Catholic schools were built over 9000 years ago, and only have enough room for 300 kids, but there's 1200 fuckers scurrying through the halls just to get to their next class.
Dude, why did you go to a Catholic High School?
It gives me a more religious and fulfilling experience.
Pfft-HAHAHHAH! Oh, you're serious. Let me laugh even louder. AHAHHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHHAH!

A case of diarrhea where the feces escapes the anus at very high velocities. The shit is usually quite watery, which allows for smooth flow out of the asshole. A stomach ache usually precedes a high speed download and the person feels quite relieved after it is complete.
I just took a high speed download, and now I feel great.
That high speed download made this restroom stink.

Everyone all day at Luella High School:
Don't look at me, peasant.
Don't touch me, peasant.
Say something one more time, peasant.
Look at me again, Peasant. TRY ME.
