Obviously 2009-10 leans more late 00s and 2011-12 leans more core 10s. Does the 2010-11 school year(August 2010 - May 2011) have more in common with the cultural late 00s or the core 2010s? In my opinion, I think the first half of the school year is sort of a middle ground not leaning to strongly either. The second half however has more visible core 2010s trends than late 00s, specifically around Feb-Mar 2011. Remember, core-2010s does NOT equal mid-2010s.

Not every decade has to have changes in the same pattern.

I'd say late 2000s as that's when the Iraq War was still going on. Osama Bin Laden wasn't killed until May 2011. A lot of 2000s movie franchises such as Harry Potter and 2000s TV shows were still going strong. Movies released had a late 2000s vibe. 2010-2011 was the peak of electro pop. Slider, maybe flip phones were the majority over smart phones. I believe the recession was still talked about during that time. I will admit that spring 2011 was when we had the earliest core 2010s influences such as Adele, hipsters, Game Of Thrones. Even though iPads were released in spring 2010, I don't think they caught on until the 2011-2012 or 2012-2013 (when the core 2010s really began) school year. A lot of rap and R&B sounded more late 2000s than what was on the radio later in the decade. Kids @ my middle school still sported the scene looks. I don't really saw much of flip phones in 2010-11, they were considered yesterday's news by many people. By around winter/spring 2011, I had certain realization that we are really in a new decade.

I say neither tbh. I think by 2011 it was already too much into the 2010’s, but at the same time I still wouldn’t quite call it “Core” 2010’s yet until 2012. I would say it was in between, I’m surprised neither didn’t get more votes.

I’d say it leans more core 2010s. Like you said, the first half of the year felt more in between, but I think by the end that year it was more in the core 10s territory. I even remember thinking how different things were from 2007 and 2008. By the end of that school year most people had smartphones although a good amount of ppl still had feature phones. Electropop was at its peak, skinny jeans were popular, Drake, Taylor Swift, Justin Bieber, Adele, Nicki Minaj and Bruno Mars were all popular, Obama was in office for two years at that point, MCU existed outside of just Iron Man and was starting to get more popular, Osama Bin Laden was killed that spring. GoT, Adventure Time, TWD, and a few other quintessential 10s shows were on air by the end of that school year too. Facebook and Twitter were more popular than they were in the late 00s. It felt more 10s than 00s, but still a transitional year imo

It must be interesting to be in high school from 2007-2008 to 2010-2011, you saw a lot of changes throughout the years. 2007 and 2011 felt so different from each other.

If we're talking specifically what it was like in school, then 2010's. A big reason being that social life was happening primarily online.
