High school can be a cliquey and isolating wasteland of social dysfunction. A study published in the Journal of Adolescent Research looked into the social hierarchy of schools and came up with 12 main cliques that kids revolve around:
- Populars – rich, attractive, and well-known
- Jocks – associated with sports and parties
- Floaters – these are those that can “float” from group-to-group
- Good-Ats – well-rounded and well-liked
- Fine Arts – skilled and artistic
- Brains – academically superior
- Normals – unknown and invisible
- Druggies/Stoners – use and deal pot, and possibly other substances
- Emo/Goths – the wear black because that’s what the feel inside
- Anime/Manga – love anime, Japanese video games, and graphic novels
- Loners – keep to themselves with low senses of self-worth
After discussing the different types, The Bobby Bones Show divulged into what each show member’s ‘clique’ was in high school. We had 3 populars, 2 floaters, 1 brains and 1 emo.
