Largest High Schools in U.S.?

I’m part of a pretty small high school and the thought just hit me - what are some of the high schools with the most students in the U.S.?

There are a number of very large high schools across the United States. These are usually public high schools, as they tend to have more students than private schools due to their accessibility and lower cost. Here are some examples:

1. Brooklyn Technical High School in Brooklyn, New York, is one of the largest high schools in the U.S., with an impressive enrollment of around 5,800 students.

2. Granada Hills Charter High School in Los Angeles, California, is another large high school, with about 4,300 students.

3. Additionally, Adlai E. Stevenson High School in Lincolnshire, Illinois, has over 4,200 students.

4. Skyline High School in Mesa, Arizona, serves over 3,600 students, making it one of the largest high schools in the Southwest.

5. Allen High School in Allen, Texas, is another notably large high school with a student population of roughly 4,200.

6. Lastly, Plano West Senior High School in Plano, Texas, has an approximate student population of 2,100 but it serves only 11th and 12th grade students.

Remember, while larger schools can provide a wider variety of programs, clubs, and sports, the experience is often quite different from smaller schools. Student-to-teacher ratios can be higher, making it more challenging to form close relationships with teachers. Also, at such large schools, it can be more competitive to get leadership positions in clubs and sports. However, many students also value the wide array of opportunities and the diverse student body that large schools can offer.
