Here’s a list of films to help get you back into the school spirit (if possible)!

1. Fast Times at Ridgemont High (1982)

A group of students learn to deal with high school, sex and work, while putting up with an irritable history teacher.

2. The Breakfast Club (1985)

Five students from a range of stereotypes are stuck together for one epic detention. Secrets are revealed, hearts are broken and bonds are built.

3. Rushmore (1998)

Maxwell Fischer is a self-proclaimed genius on academic probation who finds himself unceremoniously expelled from Rushmore Academy.

4. Election (1999)

We all know a Tracy Flick: that disturbingly peppy overachiever who always has to be the best. And who’s to say she isn’t? Oh the tragedy of a good old high school election.

5. Dead Poets Society (1989)

Professor John Keating (Robin Williams) inspires his students with poetry, and a motivation to learn. Carpe diem!

6. Grease (1978)

Sandy’s a good girl. Danny’s a rebel. Will their summer love last, while high school tries to pull them apart?

7. Mean Girls (2004)

Endlessly quotable and always funny, if there’s one movie that defines our generation, it’s this one.

8. American Pie (1999)

Four guys plan to lose their virginities by prom night, one way or another. Let’s just say there’s pie. Warm pie. Tender pie…

9. Napoleon Dynamite (2004)

If you consider your life an indie film, or in the very least, you were the wallflower to the mean girl, then this one’s for you.

10. Accepted (2006)

When Bartleby Gaines is rejected from every college he applied to, instead of coming clean to his parents, he makes one up.
