High school, what an interesting place.  It’s full of multitudinous clichés that define where students belong. Four endless years of trying to fit in only to be categorized by how others see themselves.

Even though being in certain cliques is inevitable, they help with acceptance.

“I feel like high school is trying to figure out where you belong,” junior Drew Porter said. “[Teens] want to act a certain way or be a certain way so they can fit in.”

There are completely different mindsets that exist within the walls of Antioch Community High School. Here are the stereotypical roles associated with the teenage life.

Partiers

These are the kids who look forward to the weekend for one reason and one reason only: to get drunk.

According to the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, adolescents look to alcohol because they “encounter dramatic physical, emotional, and lifestyle changes. Developmental transitions, such as puberty and increasing independence, have been associated with alcohol use.”

Materialistics

Also known as the popular clique in school, these girls are usually found on the cheer team and in the nearest PINK store. There’s always one leader with her friends following close behind as if they’re puppies. They are thought of as superficial girls who carry purses filled with lipstick, mascara and birth control.

Studs

These are the guys who really get around. Multiple names appear on the screen of their iPhone as the innocent girls think they stand a chance. Along with their “charming” personalities, it’s all about the looks. Styling from head to toe, everyone’s eyes wander to theirs.

Geeks

Geeks are found in clubs and any extracurricular that involves thinking. They spend Friday nights in their room curled up with a textbook.

Nerds are “obsessed with joining and starting school clubs,” Sarah Gibson from Highnobiety.com wrote.

Jocks

Known for their athleticism and popularity, this group tends to be the most intimidating. Their crave for sports isn’t the only reason they’re seen together.

“Mostly all the kids who are in athletics hang out with each other,” junior Robert McGinn said. “That’s mainly because they all have the same time schedule.”

Druggies

Whether it’s coming to school high or dealing in the bathroom stall, they find a way to escape reality.

“Some [kids] act out in different ways like drugs, to secure themselves and make themselves feel more comfortable,” McGinn said.

Drifters

They are the ones who don’t really fit into a specific group. They are either seen nowhere or everywhere. Drifters are not sure of who they are yet, and take extra time to figure this out.
