Cliques...

Everybody knows what a clique is. A group of people who hang out with each other, and are categorized by how they dress, act, socialize or treat other people. Every school has cliques. These days we have more labels than a clothing store. Some of the ones most commonly thrown around include, Preps, Emo kids, Nerds, Jocks, Losers, and Druggie, or 'bad' kids. LMS has a distinct social hierarchy, that can be seen by anyone of any age. Everybody knows which group they're 'in', and most people can tell you which group anyone of their peers belongs too. Most kids don't have a problem with cliques, and enjoy the sense of belonging somewhere. Adults tend to disagree, and think that everyone should just get along with everyone. This leads to teachers trying to group kids with others that they probably don't get along with for projects etc.
