  • Oh, totally because it's such a relatable setting! We've all been through school, so there's this shared experience. But movies amplify it with all extra fun elements like secret societies or magical classes.

  • For sure! Hogwarts from Harry Potter is a classic, of course. But then there's also Rydell High from Grease—so much music and dancing! Oh, and we can't forget about Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters from X-Men.

26. Highland High School

Movie - Beavis and Butt-Head Do America (1996)

You may not like the movie, but you have to admit it is original. Judging by the main characters, you won’t get much from the school (except their TV).

27. Mt. Abraham High School

Movie - Final Destination (2000)

It is a great place to meet very good looking people and then see them die in the order that the grim reaper has decided. Did you know the movie was a bit of a rip off of a Twilight Zone episode, and it has a lot of similarities with the Dead Zone movies too.

28. Performing Arts High School

Movie - Fame (2009)

If you want to become famous, then you can make a fool of yourself on a national TV show and expose the fact you are mentally unstable, you can marry a rich movie director, or you can attend this high school and meet some stiff competition.

29. Rudge Park Comprehensive

Movie -The Inbetweeners Movie (2011)

In this highly successful British movie, four uncool misfits take a post-high-school holiday in Malia, Crete, where they encounter a quartet of fun British gals. Sounds like they learnt a few lessons outside of school.

30. San Dimas High School

Movie - Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure

There is actually a San Dimas High School in San Dimas, but they filmed the movie in the Coronado High School in Scottsdale, Arizona. This truly is a feel-good movie that helps you remember that life at school is sometimes--happy.
