The Harbor School, The O.C. Poster

The Harbor School, The O.C.

The Harbor School is a private school for the children of Newport's elite. It's a place where drama is always brewing, especially when Ryan Atwood, a new student from Chino, arrives. Ryan and his "brother" Seth get into a few fights with their classmates, but we still would love to sit in class with them. The school is located on a beautiful campus with large lawns and palm trees, and the student recreational area is amazing. We could have joined Seth and Summer on one of the comfy leather couches and listened to them bicker while Ryan grabbed a coffee from the coffee cart. It would have made our high school experience a hundred times better.

McKinley High School, Glee

Even with the school's lack of funds, we'd love to be in Lima, Ohio's school from Glee. Imagine Rachel and Finn's duet, Cheerios in matching outfits led by Sue Sylvester, or exciting events like a Rocky Horror performance. The building isn't fancy, but the people provide endless fun.

Dillon High School

Dillon High School, Friday Night Lights

We all wanted our school football team to be like the Dillon Panthers. A top-notch team, they play exciting games in Texas. Coach Eric Taylor pushes his players to work hard and give their best. Football is a big deal for the students. Watching nationally recognized football at their games is a dream experience.

Apart from the scary beast, going to Nevermore School seems magical. Even though Wednesday Addams doesn't like it, we'd love to be there. It's a school for outcasts and has cool stuff like the Poe Cup and secret groups. It's like Halloween every day in this cool castle.
