I enjoyed my inner-city high school in Chicago best. The students there were almost all middle class, with a few poor kids. My las high school, in the Chicago suburbs, had a lot of rich kids, who wouldn't associate with us poorer kids. I enjoyed my first high school, too, as I was a hockey player. My schools in Illinois didn't have hockey teams.
