School can bring back many different memories for each person. While there may be a lot of similarities in experiences, it’s inarguable that everyone has had their own unique school experience.

For a lot of people, going to school or memories of their time at school can be full of anxiety and dread-inducing feelings. Whether due to peer bullies, cruel teachers, not understanding the coursework, or not getting homework done for whatever reason, the school can be really awful for some kids.

On the flip side, school is a safe haven for some kids who lack support or necessities at home. And for kids who were more popular, school can be or was some of the best time spent.

And school evolves over time just as people do. The difficulties ebb and flow as we go through great times of transition with our peers, like how middle school is a nightmare full of elementary-aged children suddenly going through puberty all at the same time.

While looking back on the stereotypical schooling experience as an adult, far from their schooling days, it definitely felt a lot heavier and more disastrous than it actually was. Those “permanent records” really aren’t all that permanent after you graduate.

Back in October 2017, someone decided to start up a Reddit community dedicated to “Memes of the dank, but for school.” Either to poke fun at and reminisce about school or to help occupy their time during another boring class.

Since its creation, r/school_memes has garnered 28.6k members that actively share, create and enjoy memes relating to the school. We collected some of the all-time top posts to share with you today.
