As adults that is true, but in high school perceived peer pressure is important and so most kids act like their peers. (there are a number of different groups in most schools and they are not a like, but you pick yours and belong to it)
It's true as a kid too, it's just that a lot of kids haven't learned the lesson yet. One of the most important lessons you can learn when you're young is to disregard peer pressure.
