If they don't work hard enough to get good grades, they will not pass. If they fail, they might not get into the college they want to. However, in high school you have more time to do things than in college. Many students take part in hobby groups. Other students go in for sports such as football, baseball or basketball. Nearly all high schools have sports teams. Also students usually get their first job when they are in high school, though the jobs aren't very good. For example, a lot of students work at fast-food restaurants. In American high schools, fashion seems very important. If you don't have the newest and coolest clothes as those children who certainly already have them, they will think you are not cool.
