HIGH COURT

Dans le système juridique anglais et gallois, la High Court est une cour de droit civil chargée des affaires plus importantes et complexes que celles traitées par les « County Courts ». En Écosse en revanche, la High Court (of Justiciary) est la plus haute cour de justice, à laquelle les affaires les plus graves, telles que meurtre et viol, sont soumises et où elles sont jugées devant un jury.

HIGH SCHOOL

Aux États-Unis, les high schools réunissent les quatre années du deuxième cycle du secondaire (15 à 18 ans). Les élèves reçus à leur examen final se voient remettre leur diplôme au cours d'une importante cérémonie appelée « Graduation ».

La vie des high schools a inspiré de nombreux films et téléfilms américains ; on y voit le rôle qu'y jouent les sports (en particulier le football et le basket-ball) et certaines manifestations mondaines comme le bal de fin d'année des élèves de terminale, le « Senior Prom ». → GRADE GRADUATION PROM
