DeLand High School

Mascot: Bulldog. Colors: Green and Gold. Favorite sport: Football.

DeLand High boasts a pretty good football team, a pretty good band, a pretty good drama club, and an Advanced Placement and International Baccalaureate program that draws students from all over the county.

Academically, the teachers can be divided into two tribes: the apathetic and the sadistic. (But then, what high school can't that be said of? The apathetic ones have been known

to put up an overhead and go read a book for the rest of the hour, or stop five minutes into a lecture and mumble "Oh, forget it," before returning to their desks. The sadistic ones have been known to greet incoming classes with gleeful statistics of how many students they failed in the previous semester, before launching into a fast-paced, informative-but-complex lecture that their hapless students are nevertheless required to take comprehensive notes on.

The Autumn Courtier Pretty Girl teaches History at DeLand High. No points for guessing which tribe she's part of. Major events: the Battle of the Bone, where the DeLand High Bulldogs play football against the Deltona High Wolves for a bone-shaped trophy. Traditionally? DeLand wins.
