A well-known independent high school in Studio City, CA. The student body is composed of about 1,500 kids highly invested in their education. Most students participate actively in extracurriculars such as the visual and performing arts, as well as athletic teams. In addition, each year, every student reaches out to the community to help those less fortunate. Harvard-Westlake is a tightly knit social community that has a reputation for a reason - most of its students are kind, dedicated, and worldly people.

Get the harvard-westlake mug.Occurs when a person, usually of private schooling (Harvard/Yale/Princeton/etc), in an effort to show their superiority corrects a person's usage of grammar/verbage/word choice in spoken conversation. The reason for this is threefold: A) Their education costs a ridiculous amount, and while this education is in no way superior to a public school education, they feel the need to try and show how amazing going to a private school was by becoming the grammar police. B) This is usually done to hide their huge inferiority complex because they spent a shit ton on their education and that still does not make them special, and by correcting others in such mundane topics harkens back to days of yore where they sat at the head of the class as the teacher's pet. C) No one has been paying any attention to them for the past 5 minutes and their fragile narcissistic personality can not handle the 5 minute descent in obscurity by not being the center of attention.

Get the Harvard mug.Rural town in Massachusetts that has lots of drug problems and has houses that cost way too much. Has a really good soccer team and really good public education.
