It's just like every other school, only stranger

Every single school is unique in its own way. There are some things that you can old understand if you went to school in the south, other things in the county schools. There are some things that define your experience in high school if you went to a private Christian school.

1. Every First Day of School Started with a Lesson from Luke 2:52

And Jesus grew in wisdom and stature and in favor with God and man

2. There was no such thing as practice or meetings on Sundays or Wednesdays around church time.

3. You know where all your teachers went to church, where most of them lived, and you probably had most of their cell phone numbers.

"I don't understand why students always want to roll my house; I only have two small trees. It's just sad."

4. Forget seeing shoulders. Dress code barely allows for kneecaps.

5. It wasn’t unusual to hear deep religious discussions walking through the halls.

6. Students try and get teachers to go on biblical rants as a way of getting them off subject.

7. Class retreats were a very common thing.

8. If you do show choir, it is not dancing. It is appropriate choreography.

You are a choreographing queen, young and sweet, only 17

9. It wasn’t unusual to hear a group break out in religious songs at the end of class.

I owe my high school years to Brandon, Logan, Jeremy, George, and whoever else brightened my day every day in math class with their killer harmonies

10. Every event started out with a prayer

11. It wasn’t uncommon to have verses of the bible used as the class rules.

12. All school successes were attributed to “recruiting”.

Please don't get me started on this subject

13. If you go out with friends from another schools, they always act shocked that you know a certain song or movie.

So I live under a rock? Do I look like a starfish>

14. The weekend of a big area wide church retreat was like a school holiday.

Challenge Youth Conference? Winterfest? Don't expect anyone, including the teachers, to be there

15. “You go to a private school so you must be rich.”

Actually no, most of us aren't

16. You go to hell is a joked about reason for why not to cheat on a test

That's partially a joking comment

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
