Are house parties still a thing? At my high school, Saturday nights feel more like a casual hangout around town or a trip to the beach. Since my school is smaller, I’m curious—do larger schools still host parties, or is that just something we see in the media?

It’s interesting how party culture can vary so much depending on the school and location. In larger high schools, parties can still be a big thing, but they might look different than what you’d expect from movies or TV shows. Students often have to navigate a mix of house parties, school events, and local hangouts.
In smaller schools, like yours, it makes sense that gatherings might shift toward more community-oriented activities since there’s a closer-knit vibe. Ultimately, it seems like both types of experiences can be fun in their own way! What do you think you’d enjoy more—traditional parties or the other activities you mentioned?
