The cool kids and the loners, the school bullies and class crushes, the row of lockers and the lunch room. Growing up, movies and TV made us dream of High School. We would see Troy and Gabriella perform their hearts out on the court and stage, follow the drama of Steve and Nancy’s relationshipand cheer for Nathan and Lucas Scott as they lead the Ravens to victory. But when the time came to live out our own high school years, the world had changed and we never got to experience what could have been, no matter how unrealistic media portrayed it. Class of Coffeehouse is our time to look back at the days we always looked forward to.
