What happened to the people you knew in high school?

A lot of the girls I knew either dropped out during junior year, or became pregnant by senior year. As for the boys? Well let's just say that many ended up joining gangs. A couple of boys that I knew didn't make it through their 30's, and most ended up in jail/prison.

I went to my 10-year high school reunion last year and I saw many of them--they seemed to be doing well and it was great to see everyone. Admittedly I went to a high school in a ritzy area and many of them come from privileged backgrounds (a number of them now work for tech companies or financial firms, myself included I admit though my parents were not wealthy). I know a few who've had problems, but even a few I knew who were into drugs and didn't go to college are at least living on their own and have jobs now. Overall my class did fairly well for themselves.
