I've got a story/game I plan to write which I want to involve a highschool into it. (but not focused on it)
The students at this highschool would all be disruptive, but non-violent delinquents.
The ages of the students in this highschool could be higher than the average age of a highschool student (14yo to 18yo) due to delinquent stuff like being held back several years.
However after thinking more about it, the age range part is mostly due to what I myself am comfortable with. The age of consent of 18+ having been hammered into my head all my life has me very biased in this, even when I know that the age of consent in western cultures is actually most commonly 15 and 16, even in the united states. Where 18+ is more of a playing-it-safe number, without knowing precisely where the setting is, but knowing its a western setting.
So thought it would be worth asking, what ages would you be comfortable with in such a highschool?
And while I'm at it, what grades are more common in a highschool for you, or if you'd prefer, which grades at a highschool would you think would be better?
(Poll works best if you pick 1 age option and 1 grade option)
