These Memes and Tweets About School Are Too Relatable
No matter what grade you’re in, school is guaranteed to bring out all sorts of emotions. And, thanks to the internet, there’s a meme for every single thought that might run through your mind while you walk through those double doors on the first day of school in September — or any day after that.
Whether it’s back-to-school season (hello Target runs and fresh notebooks!) or promposal month, there’s bound to be a hilarious and altogether relatable school meme out there guaranteed to make you go, “literally me.” Memes are the great unifier—you send them to your best friend, they serve as the ultimate response in group chats when you just don’t know what to say, you may even try to explain them to your parents or older family members (and will probably fail). Even in tough moments, a good dose of funny school memes can completely turn your mood around.
Ahead, we’ve rounded up a few of our all-time fave school-related memes and tweets for when you just need a good laugh — or cry.

College Memes So Good They Hurt
School transitions are tough, whether you’re making the move from middle school to high school, or even elementary school to middle school. New environments, new peers, new locker combinations to memorize — there’s a reason we all have those nightmares where we forgot about a specific class for an entire semester only to find ourselves sitting down for the final exam we knew nothing about. But there’s something about entering college that hits a bit differently. Chances are, you’re on your own for the first time. You’re eating the exact same sandwich from the cafeteria every single day. And roommates… well, that’s a big change. If you need a moment to disassociate about it all, well, these are for you.
What, he’s on a schedule.
