1. Everyone played on every sports team regardless of ability.
2. You could count your classmates on 2 hands.
3. The reproductive section in your health book was repeatedly skipped leaving you completely clueless. (This made me look like a total idiot in my anatomy lab at the University of MN--yep...I listened very carefully when the TA was explaining the external female reproductive system to the guys in the class...I didn't want them to know I had never learned much of what he was talking about.)
4. Either you dated everyone in your class or your first date wasn't until you left high school. (This wasn't the case for me...but I know it was for plenty of people who attended fundamentalist schools)
5. Everyone THOUGHT they knew everything about everyone else...
6. Jr/Sr (Prom) consisted of eating a large dinner-Definitely NO DANCING!
7. When you filled out college applications you needed two extra pages because you were able to say you were involved in so much (ex: you were able to write Class president, Salutatorian, captain of the volleyball and basketball team, yearbook editor, 1st place in piano competition)
8. You only knew 200 people in your town....which were the 200 that went to your school (K-8). (oh...you might know a few people from the church affiliated with the school also)
9. You thought that all public school kids were on drugs and having sex all of the time. (So..that's a bit of an exaggeration....but slightly true)
10. You can say that you still keep in touch with 50% of your graduating class....(that would be five people for me!)

I like number 9 because that is the exact reason public school kids thought that kids were sent to Christian schools!

In my sex ed, Pastor Davies talked about how a man and a woman lay very close to each other! LOL! That didn't help me much.
You guys got sex ed??
Wow! Holly really did get "sex ed". Our sex ed consisted of splitting the girls/guys up and then a nurse talked to us about periods. I was in 8th grade... so that was pretty pointless.
