How to use "Old school" in context?
When people think of old school, they may envision someone wearing a classic black t-shirt and jeans, sitting in a classroom listening to a inspiring teacher. While that image is still popular today, there was once a time when old school was all about dressing down. In fact, many of the styles we see today originated in the old school style.
One of the first signs that the old school era was coming to an end was when people started to wear piercings and tattoos. Not only were they symbols of rebellion, but they were also out of place in a school environment.
