High school, yes. My parents didn't go to college. So no, I didn't attend the same one they did.

Parents went to the same High School as each other but one went to UK (Lex.) and the other to prestigious school in Baltimore with a weird name but I'm not bragging about it since I didn't name it.

I went to none of those three.

Didn't go to the same HS as either, but my HS was within an hour of my parents' schools

Went to summer school at dad's alma mater, mom's no.

I didn't attend any of the same schools as my parents but my son goes to the same school his great-grandfather was principal of in the 50's through the 70's. My niece went to the same high school that I went to, which was pretty cool.

My family is all over the place. From Grandparents to my generation.... Loyola, UL/USL, LSU, Nicholls. A lot started to go to LSU in my generation. I doubt my son ends up there though as we've moved out of state and as much as I love my time there, it's not something I'm going to push on him.

Same high school as my dad, aunt, grandmother, and older sisters.

Same college as one of my older sisters, but we are the only two in the family who went there.

Parents took classes there and met at LSU but did not graduate from there. Summer class while enrolled at some of our smaller brother universities...

I did.
