Yes, high school has its issues like Standardized Testing but it is not useless. High school is a vital part of people lives, it’s where students create more social skills and mature into young intellectual adults. Botstein may have a point when he pronounces that clichés like the jocks, the attractive girls and the nerds dominate high school agendas; if you’re not a part of a cliché than you’re a loner but after all these years’ clichés aren’t as important as they used to be. In my school we just all go with the flow, there aren’t any distinct clichés. High school’s now a place where AP kids can be friends with a star football players, there is no radical divide between students anymore. Botstein is looking at schools from a standpoint of 1999, high school isn’t exactly what you see in the movies
