12 Fictional High Schools You Wish You Went To
Yeah, yeah, we know it’s summer and that means the last thing you want to think about is going back to school. But if you had a best friend like Daria Morgendorffer or Tina Fey as your math teacher, we bet you’d be totally stoked to hear that bell ring. To prove it, here are 12 schools that you know you would look forward to going back to in the fall.
12. Degrassi High School — Degrassi
Let the judgment rain down upon this choice, but you have to admit, things would never get dull at Degrassi. It’s a lot of drama for one high schooler to take, but you’d get a thousand life lessons that would probably help you more than physics class.
11. Rushmore Academy — Rushmore
For some reason, high school seems just a little bit more bearable when it’s enmeshed in a quirky Wes Anderson film. The academy may be a little stuffy, but it’s beautiful. And damn, look at that list of extra-curriculars.
10. Bayside High School — Saved by the Bell
While nobody—nobody—would ever look good in the amount of neon and scrunchies those kids wear, you’d be under the watchful eye of lenient Mr. Belding and make friends for life (even if one them is Screech). Yes, it’s super hokey, but sometimes high school can get too serious.
9. Rydell High — Grease
The original high-school musical. The camp could get a little old, but just think about all of the school work you wouldn’t have to do because everyone would be too busy singing about drag racing and dropping out of high school to become beauticians. Easy A’s.
8. North Shore High School — Mean Girls
Sure, attending a modern-day Heathers-esque high school definitely comes with its cons, but a high school where justice actually gets served a la Regina George getting hit by a bus? Plus, Tina Fey and Tim Meadows are part of the administration — that’s so fetch.
