Musical Vs High School Musical

There is a big difference between high school and college from having bells to a no dress policy. For high school students, they are obligated to go, and if they don’t attend then the government comes into play. As for college, it 's a choice to go back to school. Students in college have variety of classes to choose from and freedom,etc. This could be freedom from parents or just doing whatever you want without parents barking at you, because you are now an adult. Even though I have been in college for only a semester, I would say that I enjoy college more than high school due to personal reason,and to pros and cons, of the different schools.

High school is always considered some of the best years of life. Students live with their families, see their friends almost everyday, and participate in the activities they love with the people they love. It has enough freedom for the student to decide how hard they will try, but it also has just the right amount of restrictions that parents can step in to make the student work. High school also gives students many opportunities to succeed and keep letting them try again if they fail. For example, a math teacher may allow a student to retake two test throughout a semester, but if the student proves that they are trying in the class then the teacher may allow them to retake a few more tests. Also, schoolwork is not tedious or lengthy,

It’s a very difficult thing for adults to write accurate and believable teenage characters. Often times, people my age are written to be significantly too stereotypical. Apparently, the middle aged white men who write most of these movies think every single teenager in high school is either an athlete with no passions other than sports or a nerd who has never looked up from a book. As someone who has only been out of high school for 6 months, I feel pretty confident in saying those stereotypes rarely exist in real life.

High school, the best times of our lives. But in every situation others don’t experience it as the time of their lives. In specific, the so called, “Loser, Nerds, Outcasts." Sometimes the perception that most high school movies convey for this certain group are the reality. In this article "High school confidential: Notes on teen movies" by David Denby, He describes the functions of an everyday American high school. David Denby uses very effective language and rhetoric to provide the minds of the opposing side. A sample of the rhetoric skills he uses is stereotypes, ethos, and pathos.

High school in real life is full of surprises, but according to David Denby in his article "High School Confidential," High School in the movies is very predictable. The typical Hollywood "High School Scene" opens with the jock and the cheerleader characters. Blonde and buff, the Jock and the Cheerleader are superficial and proud to proclaim it. They are popular and perky, and always too good to be true. The cheerleader is usually the enemy of the hero or heroine. She is generally rich, blonde, and queen bee of the social circle, with no sense of selflessness. The jock is usually the bully, muscular, good looking and not very smart.(Denby 343) In an essence, the male counterpart of the cheerleader. The Jock and the Cheerleader are almost

High School Musical, begins when High School Basketball Jock, Troy Bolton (Zac Efron), and Mathlete, Gabriella Montez, meet over Christmas break at a teen party, where they sing karaoke together unexpectedly. After the break, Troy

‘The Perks of Being a Wallflower’ fits into the romance and drama genres, but the movie truly shines in its role as a coming of age film. ‘The Perks of Being a Wallflower’ tackles the hardships and pain that growing up can sometimes make you feel, and depicts high school in the most realistic way I have seen for a while. Other coming of age films like ‘Clueless’ and ‘Mean Girls’ portray high school in a sort of innocence, with issues going on in the protagonist’s lives only occurring during their times at school. This film doesn’t sugar coat things. It shows Charlie’s struggles from all different angles of growing up and

In the beginning of the movie we learn that Brian, Andrew, Claire, John, and Allison attend Shermer High School in Shermer, Illinois, but are worlds apart due to the social cliques developed by peers and society. These social stereotypes have dictated the following labels for each individual: Brian is the reserved brain, Andrew is the typical athlete, Claire is the spoiled princess, John is the criminal/bully, and Allison is the artsy basket case. Each individual comes from a unique yet damaged background, but in some way similarities exist. These various backgrounds play a key role in the plot development later in the film and set forward the bond the adolescents will form before detention is dismissed.

The plot to High School Musical is that the male main character, Troy, meets the female main character, Gabriella, at a New Years party. During the holiday break, Gabrielle moves to Troy's school district, and they see each other in the hall when school starts again. Troy and Gabriella are thrilled, but there's a catch. Troy is a jock, who plays baseball, and Gabriella is a brainiac, who's trying to start fresh. Together they fall in love and find a mutual love of theater. Consequently, Sharpay and Ryan, who are consistently given the lead roles, feel threatened. They try to break up Troy and Gabriella while the brainiacs and the basketball team cooks up a plan to do the same. In the end, Troy and Gabriella end up together, and everyone else is ok with it. Add some predictable plot twists, and a few cheesy musical numbers and you have High School Musical! Highschool Musical sounds exceedingly similar to Romiette and Julio. People are trying to break up the main couple, but they push through and stay together anyway. There are multiple other stories with similar plot lines, such as Cinderella. I hope that the story ends well for Romiette and Julio just like it did for so many other

High School is a time when many teenagers get into trouble and have many conflicts and struggles. Without all of the struggles, high school is supposed to be four terrific years. There are many struggles for teens like peer pressure, managing your time, fitting in, and many more. Most high schoolers will get pressured by their peers at some point and can cause some serious problems. About fifty-five percent of students play a high school sport on top of having a job, keeping your grades up, and just overall having fun, which can be very hard to do. During High school, students are going to want to not be themselves and want to fit in without being judged by their peers. High school should be a time for you to have some great years in your

A true high school has no happy ending. There is no “happily ever after”, there is no good kid who stays out of trouble and ends up becoming the most popular kid in school. There is no ugly kid who ends up dating the most popular girl in school. All of that is a fantasy thought up to keep middle schoolers from being scared of growing up. Because no matter where you live, highschool is a dark place.

In the American schooling system, children begin primary school around the age of six, this is called elementary school and most students stay there for five to six years before they go on to secondary school which involves middle school and high school. After graduating high school some students may go on to “higher education” known as college, but any schooling done after high school is no longer mandatory.

When thinking of teen films our minds instantly might go to the well-known film The Breakfast Club which was released 1985. Some might think of the 1978 film Grease. We think of these films because they portray the lives of a group of teens for a day or even a school year, but the one thing teen films have in common are the characters main setting is a high school or around a high school (Denby 367). The 2002 film The Perks of Being a Wallflower can be categorized, by Denby’s standards, a teen film, because it meets the criteria of having goofy young actors trying to make an impression, teenage angst, and Charlie’s, the main character’s, enemies are the popular upper classmen.

Graduating from high school is what every student is looking forward to. However, going to college is a big accomplishment for all students. The first day of freshman high school and college feels the same, the excitement and pressured. As many students experienced, both high school and college could be compared their similarities. First, both students in college and high school are expected to behave in well mannered, attend to every class on time, and respect the teachers or professors. Second, being prepared in class is needed for the success whether the students are in high school or college. Third, high school and college allow the students to figure out and pursue their career. In contrary, high school and college have a lot of differences to each other. Unlike high school, students in college can choose a college they would prefer, they can manage their own time, and students be able to learn how to balance their responsibilities and priorities.

High School Musical: The Disney movie that had our younger selves dream about high school, looking forward to the prospect of getting the guy, having an amazing singing voice and fighting against the status quo. However, when you reach high school you realize it is more about deadlines, grades and realising your opinion is irrelevant. But as I continued my high school “career” I realized that the term “High School Musical” couldn’t be more fitting. Here is how high schools are like a musical:
