Differences between teaching in a community college and a high school?

For people who have taught at both locations, what are some of the differences and pros/cons about teaching at a community college and teaching at a high school?

I’ve taught English and Humanities at community colleges, and I currently teach elementary school music at a private school. But I’ve never taught English at the HS level and want to know its ups and downs.

Thanks!
Thanks for all the answers so far! I hope they keep coming!
For those who asked, there were ups and downs teaching at the CC, but overall I enjoyed it. Main problem is that I only landed adjunct (part time) positions, which offer terrible pay and no benefits (it’s very difficult to get a full-time tenured position). Pretty much all of my students with part time jobs at the mall were making more money than I was. You can’t live off the salary of adjuncting.

Good luck! College age kids want to be there for one reason or another but high school kid have to be there. There are many great students and I hope you get those but watch out for the hardended ones. It can be scarely. I was told to never walk inside of the high school alone at one time because the kids were jumping teachers and the principals! That was in a mid sized town and the only high school. Best wishes because the kids who want to learn will benfit from your experience.

  1. Ok, I know that Arabic is written right to left, I know about using the dir=rtl code on text that displays on the page, but what about the keywords and descriptions in the html coding- page title, keywords, description? .
