Noun. An obscure high school in Eastern Washington unremarkable except for its slavish devotion to football and its use of an atomic mushroom cloud as a mascot. Recent attempts at whitewashing by the school's administration have declared that the Bombers, as they call themselves, are not named after nuclear weapons but are in fact named after a bomber plane, called the Day's Pay, that workers at the Hanford Nuclear Reservation donated a day's pay to buy for the U.S. Army during World War II. To bolster this idea, the school commissioned a massive mural of bombers in flight that appear to be strafing the school's courtyard. But despite the best efforts of the administration to convince the world that Richland High does not, in fact, promote nuclear war, the mascot is still a mushroom cloud behind a big yellow "R," and the tile "bomb" in the mixing area's floor is still protected by a cadre of enormous, mean-spirited seniors.
"Richland High School has repeatedly refused the entreaties of Japanese envoys to pick a less offensive mascot."

A shitty high school with too many wings and courtyards, 9 periods in a day, and a shitty football team. What happened to all the bomb threats? we had 5 4 last year, this year? 0. fucking security with their little porn filled office.
I love NHS as much as Runyan loves watching senior girls.

1. Acronym: Academy for College and Career Exploration
2. The best damn high school in Baltimore!
3. A new, small public high school created by the Mayor’s Office of Employment Development and the Sar Levitan Center of The Johns Hopkins University, Institute for Policy Studies.
ACCE High School is different from other high schools because it is…
SMALLER…opened September 7, 2004 with 153 entering ninth-grade students. Currently it is finishing its fifth year and has an estimated 430 total students.
COLLEGE AND CAREER-FOCUSED…offering opportunities to explore post-secondary education at The Johns Hopkins University and Baltimore City Community College and career possibilities in local businesses, nonprofits and Baltimore City government agencies.
INDIVIDUALIZED…allowing students to progress at their own pace and judging their progress on their ability to demonstrate what they have learned. Smaller class sizes and a caring staff including advocates, mentors, and enthusiastic teachers ensure personal attention and support.
YEAR-ROUND…with two semesters from September to June and a 4-6 week summer program offering paid work experiences through YouthWorks. The school year includes time for credit recovery, internships, community service, and enrichment.
CHALLENGING…using a new research-based rigorous curriculum that will hone students’ abilities to be successful in high school and beyond. ACCE has three phases, involving progressively more intensive academics and career exploration. The prep phase helps students develop a strong foundation in reading, writing, mathematics and computer literacy. The intermediate phase introduces more content areas including higher math, social studies, sciences, foreign languages, and a year-long one day per week internship in a career interest area. In the advanced phase, students take advanced courses, and can possibly earn college credits by participating in college-level coursework.
BEYOND THE CLASSROOM WALLS…expanding student learning with ACCE’s special partners including the Baltimore Workforce Investment Board, Mayor’s Cabinet, city agencies, The Johns Hopkins University and Baltimore City Community College.
WELL-ROUNDED…with a longer school day, from 9:00 a.m. - 4:40 p.m., allowing maximum time for co-curricular activities such as, art, drama, debate and music, and career development experiences including field trips to colleges and workplaces.

A school laughed at, joked about, looked down on... for no good reason. People like to focus on the very few ghetto people there are. Yes they're there, but you know what else is there? Smart people. Kids getting accepted into major colleges, some even ivy leagues. Talented people. Kids who receive attention from outside sources they are so good at the sports they play, some even getting scouted. Sweet people. There is not one day that goes by I don't see at least 1 caring action take place in front of me or to me. Funny people. There's a few that are school known because of their ability to make people laugh. Teachers who care. Man we have some teachers fighting for us to get that good grade, to go to college, to make something of ourselves. Pride. We have thousands of alumni who love this school with all they got so why don't we ?
Antioch high school is not appreciated enough

The Second oldest high school in the country, Northeast squeezes over three thousand students into a building designed to hold far less than that. NEHS is located in Northeast Philly but boasts students from every part of the murder capital, many of whom get in by using fake adresses. Regardless NEHS is one of the top schools in the city, and thats why everyone wants to go there. NEHS holds the oldest high school rivalry in the country with Central High School. NE faces off against Central in football every Thanksgiving on Northeast's field at Charles Martin Memorial Stadium, in hopes of winning some golden horse statue. NEHS is the current holder of the golden horse. Northeast kids don't take any crap and fights are not uncommon after or during friday night football games (not Thanksgiving though, security is very tight). Every freshmen at Northeast spends almost the entirety of their first year lost, because the room numbers at NEHS do not match up. Odd numbered rooms are located on one side of the building while evens are located on the other. When asked for directions security and faculty will often respond with 'on the other side of the building'. Figuring out where 'the other side of the building is' is usually the problem. Freshmen are instructed to avoide the crossroads, a jam packed intersection where four different hallways cross and a stairwell empties, but don't know where the crossroads are until they're stuck in the middle of it. By senior year though amost all NEHS kids become overwhelmed with school spirit and find themselves making homemade tshirts and doning viking horns for homecoming, pep ralleys, and most importantly, MOVE UP DAY (When juniors officially become seniors and seniors officailly get to stop coming to school excpet for graduation practice and senior club leaders or team captains hand their positions down a junior). At NEHS grade is determined by graduating class numbers. The current senior class goes by 166.

One of the gayest High Schools in Oregon. It consists of faggy douche bags who have nothing special except claiming that they're great at football.
Kid 1: Do you like Sherwood High School?
Kid 2: Fuck no! That school should be fucked up the butt with a rake.
