Academic school years in the US typically range from September to June. There is no way we are in the 2018-19 school year right now. Yeah. It's too early to say we're in the 2018-2019 school year since not even August 2018 has happened yet.

I actually think Gen Z school culture started last year, to be honest. It was such a significant contrast to when I started High School back in January 2012, when people born in 1994 were the seniors and there were still a few lingering Emo scene influences. 2014-2016 could be regarded as being the transitional years between Millennial and Gen Z school culture.

Her song "Royals" was popular over here in the summer of 2013 from what I remember. Though off topic, is your forum picture your real hamster (the one you got a day before your birthday)? It's the new hamster I got after I lost my other one. I got it a day after my birthday.

There were some changes that started in late 2017, but none of them really would go into effect until 2018.

Culturally speaking; 2010-2011 = 100% Y 2011-2012 = 87.5% Y, 12.5% Z (smartphone sales pass 50 million and later on 100 million, surpassing PC sales) 2012-2013 = 75% Y, 25% Z 2013-2014 = 62.5% Y, 37.5% Z 2014-2015 = 50% Y, 50% Z (after Crimean Annexation, ISIS, and rise of SJWs and Alt-Right drama, but before Donald Trump entered the spotlight) 2015-2016 = 37.5% Y, 62.5% Z 2016-2017 = 25% Y, 75% Z 2017-2018 = 12.5% Y, 87.5% Z (it's in this school year Gen Z starts making a name for themselves for everything you brought up) 2018-2019 = 100% Z No way. I think of it like this: 2010-2011 Mostly Y 2012 Y/Z transition year 2013-2014 Mostly Z 2015+ Absolutely Z You may disagree with me, but even as late as 2017, Gen Z had not really made a name for themselves yet.

I think the hipster era (2012-early 2017) was a predominantly Millennial era. I do think we have transitioned into predominantly Gen Z culture now. I would say peak Millennial culture was in the late 2000s. 2008 was the quintessential "Millennial" year. Peak Gen Z culture will likely be in the early 2020s.

rainbow CupidTheStupid What I'm saying is that even though school classes themselves for a certain school year don't start until August or September, practice seasons for sports such as cross-country and football begin usually the week after the previous school year ends in May or June. Those practice seasons are part of the upcoming school year in every way, students that finished 8th grade in the week prior to those practice seasons are already considered freshmen when they join those sports teams. So even though classes themselves don't usually start until August or September, school events for that upcomming school year are already going on as early as May or June after the previous school year ended. Also, just out of curiosity, what month does practice season for football or cross country begin at your schools? At mine, it was always first week of June Not sure about sports events. I don’t play any sports.

This thread is pure generationology. Popedia was established for discussions about popular culture, not just shifts first and foremost.
