as far as I can remember, my older brother never looked out for me when I entered high school (he was also a junior then)

Glad we cleared that up

hmm i like Peter’s perspective actually thumbs up

Older brother logic.

See my avatar? They was me all through high school.

How many of you went to a 4 year high school? In St. Louis (county) we had 3 year high schools - us Freshmen still went to Junior High (where we ruled the school. ;)

Now that’s a true older brother!

ah… siblings — my parents spaced the three of us out so were hardly ever in the same school at the same time (but I still got… “Oh! you’re Doug’s brother? too bad” a lot.)

“No one tortures my little brother except me,” Wednesday Addams.

In my high school, freshmen were called “warts” . Charming

In today’s installment of person unclear on the concept.

When I went to school in BC the 12 years were divided into blocks of 3 so changing schools was not such a big deal, traumatic thing. Just Elementary, Primary, Jr. High and High. Of course that wasn’t good enough for the bureaucrats, because bureaucrats are bureaucrats everywhere, so the changed the last two to Secondary and Senior Secondary. Seriously? Anyway, there was/is certainly no freshman, senior junior BS like they practice in the US.

close enough

We had 5 years of high school.K-8 then 9-13. none of this Junior or Senior stuff.

The finals in Grade 13 were set and marked province-wide. Copies of those available on request.

Peter might almost never see Paige at school, since they are two grades apart. He has very little ability to watch over her there.

Our HS had 8th grade as well, being lower than a freshman stunk.
