    I guess technically this is what we did in terms of buildings. K-6 was all in one school building and then the "high school" was across town and had all the 7-12 in it. Though everyone referred to the 7-8 graders as "junior high" they were still all in the same building as the 9-12 students.

    This is what we were. K-5 Elementary at one campus. 6-12 at other campus but we had a wing for Middles school 6-8, and wing for HS 9-12.

    I was in the first class that moved 6th to the middle school in my district growing up so I had
    k-5
    6-8
    9-12
    But the majority of my 9th classes took place on the freshman campus, which was the old HS before it was outscaled and they built a new one.

    Middle school is an entirely foreign concept to me.

    Weird's probably the wrong word. I'm from a small town with our high school having maybe 650 students (AA). Just different seeing trailers outside of schools being used as classrooms.

    I am also from a small school but we had to use them because our population was getting bigger but still have an older school that was built for a smaller population. So until a new school was built this is the only way to have enough space to teach all the kids.

    They aren't trailers. They are modular homes essentially.

    nearly every public school in Atlanta has them. too many students and not enough classrooms.

    never been in one myself. but they are everywhere around here.

    It's the only way to have the classrooms needed for a school that has outgrown its building.

    Burke, while doing renovations, had it for several years. Seen it in the big cities, never in the small towns we grew up in.

    It's happens all over out here in Oregon.

    Free Pre-K is quite nice but you can probably guess why my state has higher taxes than the rest of the country.

    We had a speech trailer outside of our school.
    I think they eventually built the speech therapist an office and got rid of it though.

    Around here it's more that they can't build schools fast enough. My wife's elementary school had portables until they opened a new school a few blocks away to alleviate the overcrowding. The school closest to us has them now, but they're building a new school less than half a mile away that will eliminate that need for now.

    Zoom in on Portland to find the largest city in the country with only white people. 8 of which are Trail Blazers and the other is Damian Lillard's mom who lives with him.

    Philly has to be one of the most segregated while still having all 4 groups. No green people in the red section, no red people in the yellow section, etc. Camden looks like racial harmony in comparison.

    Austin has a pretty clear divide of white/black+hispanic that runs along I-35 as expected. And a small, concentrated Asian area on campus. Whites eeerwhere else

    I will say, as a color blind person, maps that use green and red as the two primarily colors might as well be worthless. It all blends together.

    My high school looked like a prison. Which is perhaps the reason for or even a designed training ground to the majority of my classmates, who all ended up in one.
