Just joined Vyldbrand Academy IC, so I guess we'll see!
(...though for a rl sort of High School....)
A'kos would be the transfer student people didn't quite know what to make of at first. He'd be reserved until someone struck up a conversation, then he'd be pretty talkative. Tall and exceptionally athletic yet have absolutely NO interest in joining a sports team, and thus be hounded by coaches and varsity players alike. You might be able to catch him working out in the school weight room or practicing gymnastics after school though.
He'd try to hang with the smart crowd, until he was turned away for not being brainy enough and/or being mistaken for a jock. So he'd be something of an outcast by midyear. He'd probably have one or two very good friends that were also on the outs. He'd be cool with that, and probably be their protector from school bullies. Probably have a crush on a certain girl, one that was tough and an anti-bully bully herself, backing her up in fights and enjoying them but probably not spill his actual feelings.
Classes he'd try hard, but would probably top off as a B student generally, with a couple A's depending on the class. Not doing so well on tests, but making up for it with extra work outside of class, or on projects. He'd love classes he wasn't so great in, like literature, and be more bored with classes he was great in like certain sciences or PE. The class he'd shine most in would be machine shop and mechanics. By his junior/senior year, he'd get a reputation for being a grease monkey, maybe a biker, which would be fine, since he's been working on the sickest motorcycle that school ever saw. With a certain fondness for video games and anime, it'd probably come out looking as close to Fenrir from Advent Children as possible without breaking too many laws. Only it would have a side car attachment for his best friend who still couldn't drive, because, well, that's his buddy.
Years later, he'd show up at the reunion riding that bike's evolved descendant (and, it'd probably have a Cylon monoeye or Kit's tracer) a highly paid engineer and top martial artist. He probably wouldn't worry about seeing his buds from school because, they'd still be in touch anyway.

~~ Not Primals call nor beastmans roar, Empire's wrath or nature's thorn... ~~
~~ Through gloam of night and scorching day, even weathers pour will naught bar our way... ~~
~~ With honor and pride, our tasks be swift done, a courier's path is ever run. ~~
