I actually had the distinction to be a part of almost every social clique in school. I'm not very adept at forming my own personality, so I kinda blended in with whatever group I was around at the time.
I played a lot of sports, so I fit in with the jocks. I got extremely high grades, so I fit in with the nerds/brains. I was also into gaming and rpgs, so I fit in with the DnD geeks. I'm fairly skilled doing my own auto repairs, so I got along with the grease monkeys too. I also wore very nice clothes, so I fit in with the preppy kids. Bit I also spent my weekends going to concerts, so I was part of the metalheads as well.
The benefits to going to a vocational school is there are alot of various social cliques to attach to.
Right now, since I'm an adult, I'm just another anonymous cog in the great machine of society.
