There might be a story where in a boys prep school, a new student was really good at painting. He started an art project that involved painting a mural on the old school wall.

One interesting story could be about the school's dance competition. The students prepared for weeks, coming up with unique choreography. They overcame many difficulties like differences in dance skills among the group members. In the end, their hard work paid off and they won the competition, which became a memorable event in the school's history.

There are also stories about unfair treatment by teachers. Maybe a teacher has favorites and gives those students all the opportunities while ignoring others. A student could be constantly overlooked for awards or leadership positions even though they are just as qualified as the favored students, which can be really disheartening.

One common theme is friendship. Boys and girls in prep schools form strong bonds that often last a lifetime. Another is the strict discipline. The schools have a set of rules that students must follow. And academic competition is also a theme, as students strive to do well in their studies to get into good secondary schools.
