If the preppies had Twitter
HI GUYS I'M BACK!!!! Please excuse me for this long absence, I have just finished my exams. So I'm now available to post again regularly!!
A while ago I had thought about (it doesn't happen often so believe me when I say this lol) to make headcanons on a character but I didn't really know who to do and then came up with the idea of doing a "if the students of Bullworth Academy had twitter" so here is what it would look like for preppies:
Pinky Gauthier:
Popular Twitter
She tweets "Hello", she has 500 likes and 152 RT
Twitter is his diary
In her bio there is a link to her Instagram
Derby Harrington:
"Harrington never lose" in bio
Makes problematic tweets
He was suspended several times
Settles scores with Johnny in space every 4 mornings
Bif Taylor:
Defends Derby at all costs whenever he's in the sauce
His pinned is his thread on his favorite hip-hop and rap sounds
His PP (Profile Picture) is him with his Bose Championship belt
He blocked Jimmy after the latter displayed himself with the boxing champion's belt
Tad Spencer:
He has a private account on which he spits his hatred on Derby
He posts pictures of the pastries he makes in his free time
participated in Mister Twitter (I swear we had that in France lmao) but lost
blocked Cedric Grolet
Gord Vendôme:
Twitter with a lot of followers too
Hit-tweets because they're funny
Makes indirect comments on his crush so that the latter understands that Gord is talking about him (this is Vance)
Once he saw a picture of Jimmy in an "awful" outfit (he was the one who said it) he flagged the tweet for violent speech
Parker Ogilvie:
his tweet "WHAT DO YOU MEAN A FRIEND OF MINE DID SOME WEIRD THINGS WITH MY GARDEN GNOME????" it became an iconic tweet
"gnome stan account" in bio
A real ray of sunshine in the TL
More follows than followers but he doesn't care
Chad Morris:
Has put Chester in header
Rt tweets about animal protection
He and Ricky have blocked each other but insult each other's family trees in space
Has a private account where he likes Lola's tweets
Bryce Montrose:
Doesn't have time to go because he juggles classes, work and boxing
Justin Vandervelde:
Tries to make people laugh with his tweets but they flop
When there's a scuffle in space, it adds fuel to the fire
In his "likes" there are only tweets from Ted and the other preppies
His dream is for Ted to follow him back

The age of the students at Bullworth Academy (part V)
Ouais salut l'équipe! Sorry for this long time of absence but as I said, studies take up a lot of my time. Well, here is the part V which was very much awaited (it's not true, but please do it)! Sur ce, bonne lecture!
Details:
-> I'm going to assume that Bullworth Academy is a high school
-> Since it is a high school located in the United States, four years ago and not three as in Europe (ex: France). That's why I'm going to make the following cut:
1st year: 14-15 years old - Freshman
2nd year: 15-16 years old - Sophomore
3rd year: 16-17 years old - Junior
4th year: 17-18 years old - Senior
Nerds:
Earnest Jones:
as seen in the previous part (I know it's dated), I had hypothesized (although it is very likely) that Ted was a 17-18 year old senior. Since Earnest and Ted are competing for the class steward position (I think that's it lol), I came to the conclusion that Earnest was also a 17-18 year old senior.
Algernon Papadopoulos:
I couldn't find much about Algie. The only small element that can give rise to a hypothesis is that in a line of dialogue, he says that Ted nicknames him "little buddy". In this case, if the word "small" refers to his age, it would mean that Algie is younger than Ted so either a freshman, sophomore or junior. But if it's not his age, then I don't have anything to make a hypothesis about his age.
Beatrice Trudeau:
Without a doubt, Beatrice is a 17-18 year old senior. On several occasions she talks about medical school and even says in a line of dialogue "I already know the medical schools to which I'll apply". Those in their final year have to apply to the universities they want and wait for an answer (like us in France). That's why Beatrice does this. Add to that the fact that she's been applying to be a cheerleader for several years, but Mandy turns her down every year. This reinforces this idea that Beatrice is a 17-18 year old senior.
Bucky Pasteur:
"I don't think I'll ever be big enough to be a Jock but I want to try!". This is the only element that allows me to go on a lead concerning Bucky. This line of dialogue makes me say that Bucky is not a 17-18 year old senior because it would be ridiculous to want to join the Jocks in his final year. So Bucky is either a freshman, a sophomore, or a junior. Unfortunately, I couldn't find anything else that would allow me to give him a precise age.
Cornelius Johnson:
If you listen closely, you can hear Miss Danvers making an announcement that Cornelius has the worst result on a sports aptitude test in the history of the academy. From that moment on, I told myself that he must be a 14-15 year old freshman. However, Cornelius says that Dan was hanging out with the Nerds last year so the idea of a freshman is wrong because otherwise he wouldn't have known Dan as a Nerd.
I came to think that Cornelius might be a 17-18 year old senior and that the aptitude test is the test for those in their final year, I don't really know.
Thad Carlson:
First of all, I went to look again at Dan's presentation sheet and I hadn't noticed that it was written that Dan could be one of the oldest students in the academy. So I'm going to assume he's a 17-18 year old senior.
As far as Thad is concerned, if he knew his big brother as a nerd, then he is either a 15-16 year old sophomore or a 16-17 year old junior.
Donald Anderson:
Donald is, in my opinion, either a 16-17 year old junior because he says "This is probably the worst year. Ever at Bullworth" and in this case the word "ever" refers to the fact that he is still at the academy for this year but that next year it may change, either he is a senior of 17-18 years old because he speaks college like all the final year students I have dealt with in the previous parts.
Melvin O'Connor:
As I said with Russell, the age to drive a car in New England is about 18. On the other hand, for a scooter, you must be at least 16 years old without restriction (tell me if I am wrong Americans) while in France, for example, you must be at least 14 years old.
When Melvin says "I thought delays were supposed to wear helmets", we can assume that he is lashing out at someone who is on a scooter because it would be illogical to wear a helmet in a car. As a result, we can understand from this line of dialogue that Melvin may not be of legal age to ride a scooter. So we can say that, maybe, Melvin is a 14-15 year old freshman.
Fatty Johnson:
I'm not going to lie to you, but I haven't found anything that would allow me to start with even the beginning of an answer. Really, I promise you, I searched his dialogues and his presentation sheet and there is nothing!! Fatty is one of the characters we'll never know exactly how old he is lol.
Here's the end of that part. Next time I will try to deal with students who are not in any group. It's going to take me a little bit of time but that part will be there. Thanks for reading! Bonne journée tout le monde!

Tom Gurney headcanons
Salut la compagnie! Well, no need to explain, it's all in the title! Happy reading!
He's from New York but moved to Bullworth when he was 5 years old after his parents divorced
He lives with his mother but returns to his father's house in New York during the holidays
Very good at ice hockey! He's been doing it since he was a kid
A big New York Rangers fan! he has 3 jerseys (Messier, Leetch and Gretzky)
He's the smartest of the bunch. He thinks before he acts, unlike others who go straight into the pile
We all know he's a big fan of horror movies! In fact, his favourite is The Hill Has Eyes
When he plays Pokemon, his team is all Ghost or Darkness type Pokemon
It doesn't look like it but it's pretty big. It measures 1.81 cm (5ft 11 approximately)
He and Wade know each other's arrival in Bullworth. They are the best of friends and nothing can separate them
They complement each other where Wade will act before thinking, Tom will do the opposite, and Wade will open Tom's eyes when the latter is naïve about something or someone
He likes to wear clothes that were fashionable in the 90's like oversized clothes for example
He always wears a t-shirt under a sweater or shirt because he is quite modest
He listens to a lot of Jazz and Hip-Hop
On nights when he is swollen, he writes poems or reads a book
He's a very shy guy with girls: the one and only girlfriend he had, he wrote her a poem to confess his love for her because he didn't dare tell her to her face

Bully characters X *NSYNC song
Hey, guys! This idea suddenly popped up in my head so why share it with you so here we go! (oh it's funny Here We Go is an *NSYNC song and I didn't even do it on purpose). I'll announce right away that the post is likely to be very long (sorry in advance) and not everyone.
Jimmy Hopkins - Just Got Paid
And if you'll notice my smile is like Kool-Aid 'Cause I just (just) got (got) paid (paid), uh
Jimmy, after having done a mission, is I think very happy to have some money! we know that he does the missions for two things: to foil Gary's plans and to get some money.
Pete Kowalski - Sailing
Sailing (takes me away) Takes me away To where I've always heard it could be (I heard it could be) Just a dream and the wind to carry me (soon I will be free) Soon I will be free Free
I think Pete sees Jimmy as a way to live the dream life he wants to lead: a life where he's not bothered and he's not alone. He would then soon be free, far from what bothers him.
Gary Smith - Forever Young
Whatever may come falling down Will never break our solid ground A million hours until the game is won
And no matter how many plans Jimmy can thwart, Gary will always have one until he wins.
Troy Miller - Crazy For You
Wherever I go, whatever I do, Whenever my heart is crying out for you
Russell invades his mind and makes his heart beat faster every moment, but Troy isn't about to tell him.
Wade Martin - I'm Just Wanna Be With You
If you're scared of love, don't, don't be afraid Because girl, I'm scared too, but I gotta have you
Wade is scared of love because he doesn't want to end up like his parents but he wants to try anyway.
Davis White - If I'm Not the One
If I'm not the one you want, then who's he? Take your time to figure out, and you'll see If I'm not the one you want, then maybe I'll be the one you need
When this girl refused his advances, Davis wondered why and figured that one day she would end up dating him.
Trent Northwick - I'll Be Good For You
I know you want me, too It's in your eyes, they say you do They're telling me you'll open your heart to me Yeah
Trent believes that all the girls are madly in love with him.
Bif Taylor - Do Your Thing
There ain't no excuse for coming up short The ball is in your court (ooh) So reach up and touch the sky
I see Bif saying this to himself before every boxing match as if to give himself courage and strength.
Gord Vendome - [God Must Have Spent] A Little More Time On You
I never thought that love could feel like this And then you changed my world with just one kiss
He thought that someone like him should only date someone of the same social class as him. But after going out and kissing Lola, this view of things seemed boring to him.
Parker Ogilvie - Riddle
The whole song is Parker. He tries to understand the girls, to decode every sign, but he can't. He finds it impossible but keeps trying until he succeeds.
Chad Morris - Celebrity
If I wasn't a celebrity Would you be so nice to me If I didn't have cheese like every day Would you still wanna be with me If I couldn't buy you diamond rings And all those other expensive things Would you be so into me If I wasn't a celebrity Lately
If Chad didn't have the money to pay her whatever she wants, would Lola be interested in him? No, the answer is no.
Bryce Montrose - The Game Is Over
Invincible, is what you think you are But you're just so typical Though you think that you're a star You act like everyone revolves around you
A line of dialogue shows that Bryce doesn't like Lola and I see him saying that to her face so much lol.
Lucky De Luca - Up Against the Wall
She took my hand (oh) We never said a word at all We started grinding Shorty had me up against the wall Ask me about tomorrow You know that I don't care at all I just got caught up when she had me up against the wall (Shawty had me up against the wall)
Lucky is a quiet guy who doesn't care about a lot of things and could have any girl.
Johnny Vincent - It's Gonna Be Me
Every little thing I do Never seems enough for you You don't wanna lose it again But I'm not like them Baby, when you finally Get to love somebody Guess what? It's gonna be me
During an argument, Johnny tells Lola that he doesn't know what to do anymore so that she only loves him.
Norton Williams - You Got It (Joey's part in it I melt)
Walking slowly through the rain Without worries there's no pain When you see a shooting star All your problems seem so far
Norton is so soft and soft as it is that I can see him saying that.
Ricky Pucino - I Want You Back
You're all I ever wanted You're all I ever needed (yeah) So tell me what to do now When I want you back
Ricky, our broken-hearted man, would do anything to get her back and they would be together again.
Peanut Romano - If Only In Heaven's Eyes
I keep your words alive, I could never forget Cause in the final hour you made me proud So proud that I could know you
Peanut can't thank Johnny enough for everything he's done for everything.
Vance Medici - The Two Of Us
'Cause I'm thinking 'bout you day and night And I just can't get you off my mind When you get a minute baby I was thinking we could hook up It's just the two of us, the two of us
When Vance falls in love, he knows he's going to end up with this person because he knows how to go about it and she'll occupy his thoughts until he doesn't love her anymore.
Lefty Mancini - Bringin' Da Noise
Say, c'mon c'mon let's raise the roof And give 'em proof that we can get loose y'all
Because Lefty is someone who lives his life to the fullest and on his own terms.
Hal Esposito - Yo Te Voy A Amar
Te abrazaré Te haré olvidar Lo que te hizo sufrir
Hal loves Eunice would do anything for her.
Beatrice Trudeau - Something Like You
Something happens when you look at me, I forget to speak Something happens when you kiss my mouth, my knees get so weak Could it be true, this is what God has meant for me 'Cause, baby I can't believe That something, like you ...Could happen to me Yeah-yeah... Something, like you...
Everything she feels about Jimmy.
Thad Carlson - Together Again
What can I do to make you see That I'm here, here for you I really hope that you'll come home So we can be together again
All he wants is for him and Dan to be the same as before: inseparable brothers.
Algernon Papadopulous - I Thought She Knew
My world revolved around her My love light burned for her alone But she couldn't see the flame Only myself to blame
He loved Lola, the first girl he fell in love with but she didn't see him because she didn't care about him.
Earnest Jones - Selfish
Almost the entire song is Earnest. Although Mandy refuses her advances time and time again, he still loves her and won't stop until she's his and he'd be willing to do anything for it even if it means hurting someone.
Melvin O'Connor - Space Cowboy (Yippie-Yi-Yay) ft Lisa "Left Eye" Lopes
If you wanna fly, come and take a ride Take a space ride with the cowboy, baby
Melvin already thinks he's a knight so I think he could very well, in a western rpg, think he's a cowboy and pick up a girl like that.
Bucky Pasteur - I Need Love
I just wanna tell you how I feel I just wanna have a love that's real How can I stop this burning desire? I can see that you're the one for me You're the only one I really need I need a love that burns like a fire
The girl he loves and needs is Beatrice and he doesn't understand what she sees in Jimmy.
Casey Harris - This Is Where The Party's At
The whole song is about Casey: a cool guy who wants to have fun with his friends or the girl he wants to date. He's a guy who doesn't get into trouble.
Mandy Wiles - Here We Go
Here we go, one more time Everybody's feeling fine, here we go now (Yes, yes, yes, here we go, *NSYNC has got the flow)
Just replace *NSYNC with Mandy in the lyrics and that's her! She is dynamic, very good dancer and manages to set the mood during matches and parties.
You've made it to the end! Thanks for reading to the end! A la prochaine!

Derby Harrington headcanons
SALUT JE SUIS DE RETOUR !!
First of all, I wanted to apologize for my absence. My studies take up a lot of my time so I can't be very active right now. Also I'm still on the writing of Part V regarding the age of the students at Bullworth Academy, give me some more time.
To make up for this absence, I offer you a series of headcanons on Derby. Bonne lecture!
When he doesn't have school, Derby does photoshoots as a model for Aquaberry as can be seen on posters in the store
The girls hate him, except for Pinky perhaps, but he's ranked as one of the most handsome guys in school
He knows this and brags about it
He learns French as you can hear him pronouncing French words in one of his lines of dialogue ("accoutrement" ouais ouais c'est de chez moi ça mdrr)
In the evening, he sits in an armchair, a glass of wine filled in his hand and listens to jazz
After boxing, Derby plays a lot of tennis
It has its own land and equipment
The only course in which he gets good grades without paying for them is English because he loves the language and everything around him (literature, etc)
He doesn't know that Tad is plotting against him
When he's drunk, he can say anything (like telling Justin he considers him his best friend lol)
Her perfume is One Million by Paco Rabane
there was a time when Derby was the tallest of the group but now Bif is a head taller than him and maybe Parker a few inches taller and he's disgusted lmao
His love language is to give compliments here and there. Saying "I love you" directly is too difficult for him
After Bif, the one he's met and is close to too is Bryce (that's why we see him with him in the hole and the chaos at school)
He's a real poker cheat

Casey Harris headcanons
Bonjour! Here I am again with new headcanons, especially on Casey. I've never seen headcannons on him yet so I thought it would be cool to do some on him knowing that he's underrated and that I like Casey a lot!
It's the funniest of the Jocks! With him, they're sure to have at least one laugh a day
He doesn't drink alcohol
He's afraid he'll end up like his father, so he doesn't drink :(
He is very friendly
In a Twitter world existed in the game, Casey's usermane would be @caseyatthebat
He's a big baseball fan! he supports the Red Sox
He and Bo have known each other since kindergarten
He wears a cap all the time. He feels naked when he's not wearing one
Although he is not a good student in subjects such as English or mathematics, he is a very good student in art classes such as music and visual arts
Besides, he knows how to play the drums
In reality, he doesn't dare to go too much to girls because he's shy
He's very clumsy
When he's not training or doing homework, he's playing on the console or playing drums
It is very noisy. It can be heard several metres away
He loves his mom very much. He could die for her and fight if someone spoke badly of her

Parker Ogilvie headcanons
Eh eh salut! I'm currently working on part V about the Nerds and I thought that in the meantime, why not post headcanons on various characters? So like you saw in the title, I'm going to do some on Parker because I love this guy so much?? Happy reading!
He is someone who cares a lot about how others think. He has so much self-confidence kitten :(
The other preps think he has the cutest smile you can see in Bullworth! Like, he's smiling and everybody's smiling
He's the kind of guy who listens to R&B and pop and don't ask me why
He has given a name to each of his garden gnomes and can recognize them easily while the other preps only recognize Jeff lol
He loves his little sister very much and is very protective of her
When he's not wearing his uniform, he dresses in casual clothes like jeans, oversized t-shirt, and sneakers
Gord is jealous of him because caps and hats fit him too well
He's a smoker but he's trying to quit
His nickname is Park
He likes the other preps but he's very close to Tad
When Tad arrived in Bullworth, Parker was the first to speak to him and since then they have been inseparable
He physically resembles his father
Outside of boxing, he enjoys baseball
Besides, he supports the Yankees
It has an artichoke heart. He falls in love very easily

The age of the students at Bullworth Academy (part IV)
Hey yo! I'm back with a new part of my Bullworth Academy student age survey! Today it will be the Jocks' turn! Happy reading to you and don't hesitate to tell me what you think.
Details:
-> I'm going to assume that Bullworth Academy is a high school
-> Since it is a high school located in the United States, four years ago and not three as in Europe (ex: France). That's why I'm going to make the following cut:
1st year: 14-15 years old - Freshman
2nd year: 15-16 years old - Sophomore
3rd year: 16-17 years old - Junior
4th year: 17-18 years old - Senior
Jocks:
Ted Thomson:
Ted is definitely a 17-18 year old senior. He constantly talks about his career in American football in college in his lines of dialogue and wants, as soon as high school is over, to date Miss Philips. He's really close to the end of his high school curriculum.
Damon West:
Damon uses the term "son" in a line of dialogue and refers to the first-graders with the addition of the word "kid." It is clear here that he is a senior of 17-18 years old. Also, just like Ted, he often talks about his football career after high school as if he was almost there, which reinforces the idea that he is a senior.
Mandy Wiles:
Two lines of dialogue mention the university and admissions suggesting that she should take the exams in a few months. Mandy is a 17-18 year old senior without a doubt.
Casey Harris:
"Heh heh, good kid." and "You know, you're alright, kid." These two lines of dialogue bring us back to the fact that Casey is someone who has been at Bullworth Academy for a long time, so a junior or a senior. Then, "Next year, I'm going to dominate the field!"thanks to this, we can easily say that Casey is a 16-17 year old junior since next year he will still be at Bullworth Academy and aspires to be the best of the Jocks after the departure of Ted and Damon.
Kirby Olsen:
It is stated in Kirby's presentation that Kirby is the youngest Jocks from Bullworth Academy to have received a scholarship to attend college. He never talks about college other than in that line of talk and looks like he's been at Bullworth Academy for a little while because last year Ted put him on the catcher spot on the football team. From that, I came to think that he must be a 15-16 year old sophomore.
Juri Karamazov:
"The new kids look extra puny this year." Now, I don't have any other clues as to a possibility of knowing exactly how old he is. The line of dialogue suggests he's been there for a long time, like a 16-17 year old junior or 17-18 year old senior could be, but I don't know.
Dan Wilson:
When Cornelius is chatting with other people, he can be heard saying: "Now that Thad's older brother Dan is a jock, he's too cool to hang out with us anymore." This states that Dan is neither a 14-15 year old freshman or he wouldn't be with his brother, nor a 15-16 year old sophomore because he wouldn't have known Thad as a Nerd when he himself was still one. He is either a 16-17 year old junior or a 17-18 year old senior.
Luis Luna:
I had said before that Lefty could be a 17-18 year old senior. In a line of dialogue, Lefty talks about Luis by saying that they are childhood friends. I think, in my opinion, that Luis must be the same age as Lefty, so a senior of 17-18 years old.
Bo Jackson:
"f I don't get QB next year I might switch schools." So we know in advance that Bo is not a 17-18 year old senior or he would be in college the following year.
"Why did I come to this stinkin' school?! I just wanna be QB! That's all…". this line of dialogue makes me think that Bo has just arrived at this school and when he says for a moment that he is too young to die, it reinforces the idea that he must be a 14-15 year old freshman.
End of Part IV. Thanks for reading to the end. In the next part, I'm going to deal with the case of the Nerds! It's going to take me a while but it will come out sooner or later! Au revoir!

The age of the students at Bullworth Academy (part III)
Salut! Today I'm going to attack the age of the Greasers! Enjoy reading and don't hesitate to let me know what you think!
Details:
-> I'm going to assume that Bullworth Academy is a high school
-> Since it is a high school located in the United States, four years ago and not three as in Europe (ex: France). That's why I'm going to make the following cut:
1st year: 14-15 years old - Freshman
2nd year: 15-16 years old - Sophomore
3rd year: 16-17 years old - Junior
4th year: 17-18 years old - Senior
Greasers:
Johnny Vincent:
Johnny constantly uses the word "kid" in his lines of dialogue. I think he's a 17-18 year old senior because, I repeat, who calls someone "kid" when you're the same age or slightly older by a year or two? No one.
Peanut Romano:
"Nah. Maybe this year sometime". Right off the bat, we can say that Peanut is not a first year because the sentence here implies that Peanut was already at Bullworth Academy the year before. "Look! The fresh meat… I-I mean the freshmen is here". This line of dialogue reinforces this idea that Peanut is not a safe first year.
When Peanut demands money from Jimmy, he implies in two lines of dialogue that he's not old enough to buy adult magazines. Which means that Peanut isn't a 17-18 year old senior either, otherwise he might buy them himself.
Peanut in a lot of lines of dialogue talks about how tall he is and how he is so small compared to other people his age or younger. I think Peanut is a 16-17 year old junior.
Norton Williams:
Already, just like Johnny and those who are also seniors, Norton uses the word "kid" several times. To this, we can add the fact that he is about to graduate very soon since he is already talking about what he will do after school, especially in construction. I come to say that he is a 17-18 year old senior.
Vance Medici:
As for Vance, I couldn't find anything concrete enough to indicate a certain age other than that in one line of dialogue he uses the word "kid". Maybe he's a 17-18 year old senior too, but I'm not sure.
Ricky Pucino:
Ricky must be a 17-18 year old senior as well. He uses the word "kid" in a line of dialogue, which is spoken by students much older than Jimmy. He has an older brother slightly older than him and tried to return a duty to Mr. Galloway that his brother turned in in the past not far enough for Mr. Galloway to remember. From there, we can still assume that Ricky must be in his last year of school before graduation.
Lola Lombardi:
"I'm getting so old! My life is almost over!" Just by this sentence we can say that Lola is a senior of 17-18 years old. In addition, Lola has a cherry tattoo on her left ankle. In the United States, and especially in New England, the majority of states prohibit tattoos for minors. This reinforces the idea that Lola is a 17-18 year old senior.
Lucky De Luca:
"So, there's some new kid making waves around the school. I heard he's trying to get with Pinky". First of all, Lucky is not a first year as one might think with this line of dialogue.
In some of his lines of dialogue, Jimmy's school year isn't his first, which reinforces this idea that he's not a freshman, but isn't in his last at Bullworth Academy and is therefore not a senior.
Finally, Neil tells Jimmy during the first workshop class that the cars are only for the elderly, so seniors. One might think that Lucky is a senior but it is written on the wiki that he is very mature for his age and as said before, Lucky is probably not a senior. We can then think of the fact that he must be a junior of 16-17 years old but a junior in advance.
Hal Esposito:
So I really have no idea omg. At the end of the day, Hal says in a line of dialogue that he has to go buy cigarettes. If we assume that the events are set in 2006 in New England, you can buy cigarettes at the age of 18. You might think that Hal is a 17-18 year old senior, but nothing has been decided.
Lefty Mancini:
"Get any action at the carnival last year". Lefty isn't a first-year-old or he wouldn't know the funfair. Subsequently, when he is walking alone, he can be heard saying: "Gotta get me another pack of smokes and a hot dog". Seen for a moment with Hal, only people 18 and older can buy cigarettes according to New England state laws in 2006. That would mean that Lefty is a 17-18 year old senior. We can continue this momentum by the fact that he, like many others, also uses the word "kid"

The age of the students at Bullworth Academy (part II)
Hello! Today in this second part I'm going to talk about the age of preppies. Happy reading!
Details:
-> I'm going to assume that Bullworth Academy is a high school
-> Since it is a high school located in the United States, four years ago and not three as in Europe (ex: France). That's why I'm going to make the following cut:
1st year: 14-15 years old - Freshman
2nd year: 15-16 years old - Sophomore
3rd year: 16-17 years old - Junior
4th year: 17-18 years old - Senior
Preppies:
Derby Harrington:
When Derby speaks when he walks alone, he can be heard saying this: "Why won't my father let me cash in my trust fund? It's like he doesn't understand: I need a yacht too!" After doing a lot of research, it turns out that, in most New England states, you have to be at least 16 years old to be able to drive a boat alone without the assistance of an adult. Derby's line of dialogue suggests that he can drive his own yacht himself. We can then deduce that Derby is either a 16-17 year old junior or a 17-18 year old senior
Bif Taylor:
Two lines of dialogue from Bif can guide us on an age. The first: "She'd totally dig me if I had a car". As seen with Russell, the minimum legal age to drive a car is 16 years and a few months (for some New England states) but with restrictions, otherwise you have to be 18 to drive without restrictions. We can already say that Bif is at least 16 years old or older.
The second line of dialogue reads as follows: "Does my trust fund kick in at eighteen or twenty-one?" The majority in all New England states is 18 years old and this line of dialogue makes me think that Bif is very close to reaching the majority. I came to think that Bif must be a 17-18 year old senior
Pinky Gauthier:
Pinky in conversation: "Daddy says he'll buy me an Italian convertible when I turn sixteen!" This line of dialogue allows us to rule out the possibility that Pinky is a junior or a senior. In addition, "I heard we'll be allowed to bring our own servants next year!" This suggests that Pinky was already at Bullworth Academy last year as if this year and last year, servants were not allowed. I conclude that Pinky is a 15-16 year old sophomore.
Tad Spencer:
"They'll have a hard time topping last year's carnival." We know from this line of dialogue that Tad is not a freshman otherwise he wouldn't use the words "last year". Also, in The Eggs, Tad explains to Jimmy that he's not an old rich guy like all the other Peppies but a new one. This suggests that Tad probably arrived at Bullworth Academy a year before Jimmy, otherwise the new term wouldn't make sense if he had been in school longer than that. I've come to think that Tad is probably a 15-16 year old sophomore.
Gord Vendôme:
What I'm saying for Gord is not certain.
During a mission, he can be seen talking with Parker. If we listen to their conversation, Gord says he's going to work in his father's office this summer. In the United States, the minimum age required to work is 14 years old with constraints, otherwise it is 18 years old without constraints. So all years of high school are possible for Gord. However, the fact that he talks quite often about law school and how much he is looking forward to it may make us think that he may be a 17-18 year old senior.
Parker Ogilvie:
"Dr. Crabblesnitch is making Hopkins a Prefect, even though it's his first year." We can see that Parker is probably not in his first year at Bullworth Academy, so not a freshman. When he gets hit by a bicycle, he can be heard saying: "I should have daddy drive me." This sentence may make us think that Parker is not yet old enough to drive a car. So, we can deduce that Parker is a 15-16 year old sophomore.
Chad Morris:
Chad is the one who gives me the most trouble because there are hardly any clues that could tell us how old he is. The only thing I found is: "want to ride on my scooter, jimmy, next weekend sounds good?" As seen earlier, the minimum legal age in New England to drive a vehicle is 16 years and a few months or so. He is then either a 16-17 year old junior or a 17-18 year old senior.
Justin Vandervelde:
Another one that I can't give a specific age range on lol. Well, I can say that Justin is not in his first year because during a free conversation with another preppie, one of those lines of dialogue is: " My dad arranged for me to get perfect marks this year." This clearly means that he is not a freshman. Then, with this line of dialogue: "I think I'll skip university and go straight to my father's business." I figured that by saying that, he must be close to going to college. I've come to assume that he may be a 17-18 year old senior but nothing is certain.
Bryce Montrose:
Bryce is not in his first year as he has been working at Golf & Yacht to pay for his studies and has been for several years (starting in the 1st year). In addition, he uses the word "kid" in several lines of dialogue. Suggesting that he's older than Jimmy, in which case he wouldn't call him that if he was the same age as him. Finally "I'm making valuable contacts at the Golf & Yacht club. One guy offered me a VP job when I finish at Bullworth". This line of dialogue leads us to believe that he is very close to completing his studies at Bullworth Academy. I'm starting to think maybe he's a 17-18 year old senior
Here is the end of this second part. In the next part, I'll talk about Greasers. A la prochaine!

The age of the students at Bullworth Academy (part I)
I found it interesting and fun to find out the age of the students. Of course, for each student there will be arguments, but it is possible that I am wrong.
Details:
-> I'm going to assume that Bullworth Academy is a high school
-> Since it is a high school located in the United States, four years ago and not three as in Europe (ex: France). That's why I'm going to make the following cut:
1st year: 14-15 years old - Freshman
2nd year: 15-16 years old - Sophomore
3rd year: 16-17 years old - Junior
4th year: 17-18 years old - Senior
Bullies:
Russell Northrop:
In the U.S. system, you can get a driver's license between the ages of 14 (for one state) and 17 years old. Most states have set the age of 16 for obtaining a driver's license. However, knowing that Bullworth Academy is located in New England, the age to obtain a driver's license is between 16 years and 16 years and 6 months. So we can already rule out the fact that Russell is a Freshman and a Sophomore.
In the mission Busting In (Part I), we can see Russell riding a police motorcycle that he stole. He is then chased by the police not because he has restrictions (yes, people under the age of 18 have restrictions when they get the license) but because he stole the car. Also, if we get used to his imposing physique and his minimal intellectual skills for his age, we can assume that he is 17-18 years old and is a senior.
Davis White:
"You know something's wrong when a freshman fights back, we didn't do that in the old days!" With this line of dialogue, we can say that Davis is not a freshman, therefore a 1st year student. Moreover, if we look at the "old days", we can make the assumption that Davis' 1st year was a very long time ago like several years ago. It can then be assumed that Davis is a 17-18 year old senior.
Trent Northwick:
Truth be told, I couldn't find anything that could tell me Trent's age other than the fact that he uses the word "kid" in a line of dialogue. I had thought that he would be a 17-18 year old senior to talk about a student like that but no certainty so I leave it hanging for the moment.
Troy Miller:
Troy wants to join the military when he reaches the minimum age of 17, which means he's neither a junior nor a senior. In a line of dialogue when he loses a fight, he can be heard saying, "So much for the army…" We can understand from this sentence that he probably seemed close to being able to enter the army but that this possibility now seems to be over. Thus, it can be assumed that Troy is a 15-16 year old sophomore.
Ethan Robinson:
During Chapter 2, Ethan can be heard saying: "I can't believe the Carnival's already here! This year's just flyin' by". From that, we can put aside the possibility that he is a first-grader since he has already experienced carnival while being at Bullworth Academy. Afterwards, his sentence may mean that compared to other years, the carnival is already here. So I'm torn between saying he's a 16-17 year old junior or a 17-18 year old senior.
Tom Gurney:
As far as Tom is concerned, I initially thought he was a 14-15 year old freshman or a 15-16 year old sophomore because in a line of dialogue he says: "I'm too young". However, in some lines of dialogue, he uses the word "kid". That's why I came to think that he couldn't be a freshman or a sophomore because it would be ridiculous to call someone the same age as you or a year apart. I'm mixed between the fact that he's a 16-17 year old junior and a 17-18 year old senior.
Wade Martin:
Wade remains for me the biggest mystery of the band. No matter how much I've gone through all of his lines of dialogue and his profile, I haven't found anything concrete that could make me go on a track. At the very least, in a line of dialogue, he says: "My dad says he's gonna buy me some condoms so I can like, do it with chicks, y'know?" Knowing that the sexual majority in New England is 16, I thought he might be a 16-17 year old junior but that's a far-fetched theory right?
That's the end of this first part. In the next one, I'm going to deal with the Preppies. Feel free to let me know what you think. Au revoir
