Looks like a teenage kindergarden for privileged white catholic boys.
I know kids would write stuff like the below in their yearbook, but for the school to print it as part of their profile is disgusting.

I'll have your legs broken.
There's only one Prep, bucko.
Georgetown Prep has always had the rep as rich spoiled entitled white kids.
The men in our family (3 generations) went to Gonzaga -- Jesuit high school on North Capitol Street, in town, located in what was always a dodgy neighborhood (recently redeveloped). Solid kids. Gonzaga would not have tolerated the conduct perpetrated by the Prep kids.
Mine went to private Catholic school, certainly far from elitist though.
Still it has/had its issues including the partying bullshit. Kids that young just can’t handle hormones and booze well.
Nothing like that bullshit though.
It also assumes these rumors are true of what it meant. This is not reputable news, and at this point is a guessing game. The times printing this garbage is really disappointing.
A lot of responsible adults were immature schmucks in high school. God knows I was hardly a beacon of responsibility.
Never-the-less...spoiled rich kids tend to act a certain way, so from a macro perspective none of this surprises me.
beach ralph club etc. But give me a break about whether it was true. One of the assholes wrote a poem about it. Wonder how Brett would feel if that was one of his daughters 8 years from now?
Of course almost all of us were immature schmuks back then. That’s why you try to keep a lid on it and discourage it, instead of bragging about it in the official yearbook.
Looking into yearbook content? Besides catch words such as profanity they probably think it beneath them to scan yearbooks for inappropriate behavior.

What'll it be 10-20 years before people who had twitter or facebook in their youth become eligible?
With the exception of the garbage I spew on this forum I have zero social media or internet presence and try every day to convince my kids to do the same. Privacy is like a balloon.
If HS yearbooks are in play and our hyper-partisan political environment continues on the path it's on. There will be no candidates that are able to be confirmed before long.

schools in the DC metro area is pretty outrageous, as it is most big cities. Most of the private school kids with whom I've worked have indicated partying was excessive yet discrete and often at the homes of very wealthy families. I've always been surprised how many parents leave high school kids home alone for multiple days assuming their kids would "never."
The parents, of course, have more important places to go, things to do, and parties to attend to be bothered with parenting.
