My dad was born in 1943 and graduated in 1961. He had my much older half brother in the 60’s and then had me in 1992. Our high school experiences were obviously super different. As a millennial I had technology everywhere
I like the format you present theses videos in, thank you. My sister graduated in 1963 with a class size of just over 300 kids, a year later my brother graduated with a class size of nearly a thousand kids, that was the boomers, (baby boomers). My Dad came back from WW2 in 1944, my Sister was born in 1945 and my Brother was born in 1946.
Since 1960s were 6 decades ago. I wonder how people in the 2080s decade will see teenagers in high school now in 2020s. 2080s people gon see this viedo as ancient by then.
It's unbelievable how our parents were playing, and they were looking for a lovers in school ,they did the same things that we did and they scolded us for things that they also did lol
I’m born 1950. Everyone was well dressed especially for church, out to dinner, birthday parties and night time on the Atlantic City boardwalk even kids were Sunday best. Shirts tucked in. I think it was mid ‘70’s. before church clothes became play clothes.
My grandma was born in 1943 and my great uncle was born in 1942. This is pretty accurate on how high school life was for them. I graduated from high school in 2021, so my experience was very different from theirs due to technology.
Hum none of these kids looked hippies, especially in 1966. The video changes the music at that time so I think it creates an illusion in your perception
@@chrisrj9871 It kind of does actually. Especially if you compare them to how hippies looked around the same time. Checkout the footage from the Altamont and Woodstock festivals to get a glimpse of actual hippies fashion.
The technology of today is great, but my life as a kid growing up in the '60s was far better than that of a modern-day young person. I'm sorry, but the best of times is long over - and I don't see how we can get it back. Good luck, @livewithlondon7717, because ... you're gonna need it.
Cool video but the birth year ranges specified seemed off. High school is 4 years (and in some cities 3 years) yet the majority of birth year ranges for a given academic school year spanned 6 years. That's like saying a lot of these kids flunked 1-2 grade levels??
@@miggans21012 I'm thinking he's either someone's dad sitting in on one of his kid's classes or a really unconvincing narc. Male pattern baldness and sideburns?
Or it’s in a mostly white area. I mean In the early 60s black Americans were 10% of the total population. Not surprising to see mostly white kids especially if it’s not a large city.
desegregated*. segregated means separated. believe it or not we still have voluntarily segregated schools in 2023. there are schools that are 99% black but you can hardly find a school thats 99% white, and if you did someone would be upset about it. funny how that works
High school was a difficult time for me I was a foot shorter than the girls 40 lb overweight with crooked yellow teeth and a bad case of gas the ugliest girl in school would not give me the time of day so predictably I played with myself a lot and over time went blind
no bullying in the sixties? statistics show teenage rebellion has actually decreased dramatically. Sadly though, confidence, safety, and happiness have also gone with it.
If you'd told us _"No overweight people because there was no fast food,"_ I would've said, _"Yes, exactly!"_ ... but no racism, hate, or bullies? I'm sorry, but you're completely wrong.
Where are the Black kids? They weren't allowed in a lot of white schools. That's racism. There was tons of hate, body shaming, bullying. I know, I was in HS 1962-1967.
Whether 50s,60s,70,80s, in the end kids are kids just living life and having fun not realizing that this and earlier is the best time of your.
The change in ladies hair styles and fashions in that short time period is amazing.
Girls wore skirts & dresses in school but had play clothes. Didn’t wear dresses everywhere. 60’s
@@suestephan3255 the thumbnail is 70s more likely
Crazy to think in 2021 some of them are 80 years old
@Van Larry nope nobody gives a damn get a life
Yup I guess some of them would be around 80, that’s time for ya!
@Josh Traffanstedt he means its crazy how time flies :)
@joshtraffanstedt2862 hope it blows up long by then
Even crazier to think just some
I only saw 1 overweight student in that entire video.
Facts,no obesity,we had one girl in my town,one,that was it.
@@stjohnbaby the thumbnail image is more likely a 1970s photo
It’s amazing how much things changed from 1960-1969
Even late 60s segments looks more likely as a 70s ones to me
My aunt Judy was born in 1943, so she’s class of 62’. She’s 79 now, she’s still super fun to be around.
That's cool! I hope she stays young forever!

My dad is just a year younger b.1944 and I completely agree as about same age as you
Yes that's the way it was. Great times.
Yeah I miss 1966 that was the year I graduated and met my wife in 68 8 months after the summer of love and that damn nam war
My grandpa was born in 1950 but never had the chance to experience school due to him working so young & early in his life.
I can't help but wonder how many of the kids in the video ended up in Vietnam
Man, high schools in 1966 the students must’ve changed from 1965 especially in that year

Yes that is how it went, came home from war and out came babies. Average family size was 5
The students look like they're in their 30's Lo!
They were!
Class of 1961. Here I come Viet Nam!
GONE ARE THE DAYS
Injoy your youth its not for ever and study harder
This is about the time that my mom was still teaching.
I went to this school! The guys name at 2:21 was Ronnie pole dancer. Hahaha takes me back (I’m 20)

Some kids that were bullying had a bad upbringing just like today!
Back when you were allowed to fight back against bullies.
You are
Back when mom’s couldn’t fight back against their abusive husbands and if they did they’d be drunkenly beaten worse.

What a good time and you could tell who were the teachers in 1962
It just seemed so much better back then
Normal people doing normal things what a breath of fresh air to watch sad video
Whats crazy about 80. See if you make it !
Geez what tune is this one?? one of the nicest sounding surf guitar pieces I've heard but can't put my finger on what song it is
I would like to know too.
Now I understand when the kids started to rebel. It's when they started sitting outside on the ground cross-legged.
It's crazy that there was a definite difference once 1966 came around.
1965 - still conservative; 1966 - hippies
Yeah cause colour camera footage was becoming more used
The funny thing is that every 10 years, almost everything change.

Loved 1965-1969.
If that’s La Sierra High School in Sacramento, it closed many years ago.
Wow , :3
hey man, nice song in the video! whats it called?
The clothes and hair styles seem to start to improve in the mid 1960's with the era of the Sosh's (after the greaser era but before the hippie era).
70s were hippie era
Most of these kids in this video were sent to Vietnam just after graduating from high school
In the 70s baby
In that first one, Joe Biden was in that age group
That’s when the teachers dressed like professionals nowadays the teachers look like they just come in from doing yardwork
1960s is the year my grandma was in school

You have family members who studied in the 70s
@@luanloud9454 my grandma graduated in 1977
it’s crazy all of them would be 80-90 years old now!
Or dead
The students would be in their 70s today while the teachers would probably be dead or in their 90s or more than a 100 years old
none of them would be in their 90s yet
Not quite! My folks graduated 1954 & they’re 87

No drag queens?

We need to cancel all people that went to high school in the 60’s!
Drag queens were in private clubs or night clubs.
