Reality of high schools...
When watching a musical, or to an extent any film you are pulled in and made to believe that it is reality. Its only until you realise the colour on the walls aren't as bright, people aren't usually that nice to each other and differently do no break out into a song.

One of the most prominent school shootings was that at Columbine High School, in Littleton, Colorado. On Tuesday, April 20, 1999, students Eric Harris and Dylan Klebold murdered thirteen people on the school campus before they committed suicide. Perpetrators of school killings often voice anger or loneliness preceding their actions.
In the United States, one-on-one public-school violence, such as beatings and stabbings or gang related violence, is more common in some densely-populated areas. Inner-city or urban schools were much more likely than other schools to report serious violent crimes, with 17 percent of city principals reporting at least one serious crime compared to 11 percent of urban schools, 10 percent of rural schools, and five percent of suburban schools in the 1997 school year.[1] However school shootings in other countries may take on more national or religious overtones, such as the Mercaz HaRav massacre.
