Clothes are another hardship that students have to face in high school. The in-style is always being looked at and questioned. When I was in fifth grade it was cool to wear tight pants. But next year I supposedly did not keep up with the new fad of baggy pants. Immediately I was a dork for wearing tight pants.
School is a very hard place to really be an individual.
People are separated into what are called cliques. There are the popular kids, the jocks, the nerds and all the others. The pressure on kids is tremendous all around. For the kids in Columbine it was because they weren't popular or jocks and they dressed differently from others. As well as what is happening in the school that creates these separations of students.
