School Dramas

As the title says, these are dramas that take place in or around schools. I tried not to stretch this too much, but these usually aren't actually my favorite, so I end up avoiding them sometimes, though that doesn't mean I never watch, thus this list. Basically if they are going to classes, the drama was added, if they show the school a couple of times, it is added. Most importantly, if it's the main character that is going to school, even if that's the teacher atm.
