Subject: What was your high school experience like ?

Written By: CarCar on 06/06/20 at 3:14 am

This question is mainly for people who were teenagers at some point between the years 2000 to 2020(Present).

Dawson’s Creek/Lizzie McGuire/Buffy the Vampire Slayer: Late 90s/Early 2000s

13 Reasons Why/Euphoria/Riverdale: Late 2010s/Early 2020s

Or was it somewhere in the middle of all that ?

Gossip Girl/Glee/Skins: Late 2000s/Early 2010s

The bulk of my teens were in the Mid 2010s, but I also identify as an Early 2010s teen since I turned 13 and started high school in Early 2012. I wouldn't say that my high school experience was anything like that of an American drama series. Sorry to disappoint, but most of us '10s high school kids didn't go dancing through the corridors like they did in "Glee".

I couldn’t think of any other popular teen shows of the early 2010s that stood out like that one lol

Besides not all 90s teens can break the 4th wall like zack Morris did either and get saved by the bell represents the era

For early 2010s I would say 21 Jump Street.

Late 2000s is harder. It wasn't that different from the mid-2000s (2005/2006) but there was some new technology. If I had to pick, I would pick Superbad.

Oh. Teenage dramas aren't exactly my favourite genre, so that's going to be difficult.

I would say for the Y2K, the show Popular was really good. I'm not sure if it was representative, but I really liked that show.

I was there in the '90s, specifically from 1994-1998. Enjoyable for the most part, but there were some not-so-pleasant moments. I was harassed by various kids (name-called), but there were plenty of good people (who treated me with respect).

My High School experience was more from The late 1980's to early 1990's.

Mine was 1988 to 1994. My town was too small for a middle school.

Yeah, I have seen/heard of some secondary schools that combine middle school with high school.

Over here middle school is combined with elementary school.

I've seen some schools in the U.S. do that too; particularly private ones.

Graduated in 2013 from an arts charter school. I miss it so much, I loved how I could be myself and not have to worry about bullying as much as other schools. I wish I hadn’t taken it for granted.
