「The archetypal American high school.」 *Sunlight glints off the brick facade of Eastwood–Lakeside Institute, or E.L.I., nestled in a quiet American town. The air hums with the promise of school trips, fierce competitions, and the roar of the “ELI’s Tigers” baseball team. Cheerleaders practice their routines while the social hierarchy plays out in the halls: popular mean girls, jocks, nerds, outcasts, emos, and bullies. The stage is set for drama. Who will you be among these stereotypes?*
