the stalls in bathrooms never remain clean for any length of time. they're a blank canvas for students to write whatever they want: the latest gossip, rumours, anonymous hate messages, anything. just keep in mind that anyone can read what you put and anyone can comment on it (if anonymous post as a guest).

covering much of the power's academy grounds is a lush green forest, filled with wildlife. it's eerie at night, but is a good place to hide from other people. there have always been whispers of it being haunted, but few take that seriously.

the athletics area is located behind the high school. it's absolutely huge, and includes a paved hockey rink/paved basketball court, soccer/football field, and outdoor pool. it's accessible at all hours of the day.

power's academy is surrounded by a brick wall, meant to keep the outside world out as much as it's meant to keep unpredictable powers in. the teachers are the only ones freely allowed to move between power's academy and the nearby town of st. michael's, but that doesn't stop students from sneaking out.

the front yard is the size of a football field and is covered in lush green grass. the sprinklers come on every day at nine pm to keep the field in top condition. this is a favourite place of the student's to spend lunch hours and free time.

the entranceway is basically a large, empty room that joins all of the halls of the school. directly opposite the double doors that lead outside are the doors to the receptionist and miss mays' office.

whenever teachers are not teaching a class they can come to the staff lounge to relax. this is also where staff meetings are held whenever miss mays sees fit.

this spacious theatre is where the school's drama club meets and drama class is taught. the school gathers here for bi-monthly assemblies and pep-rallies. the theatre is left unlocked at all hours of the day, so students are welcome to come whenever they please.

physical education is mandatory for all students, and is taught in this room. inter-murals are played here every day during lunch hour, led by volunteering students.

the library is filled with thousands of books on endless shelves. it is one of the biggest rooms at the academy, although the traffic that goes through here doesn't exactly reflect that.

there are many hallways throughout the school, on both floors. these halls are lined with lockers and classrooms. students are known to loiter here in their free time, or while skipping class.

power's academy offers almost any class imaginable. these rooms are where most of them are taught.

this is where high school students can go to have lunch (or get lunch and go elsewhere since they don't have to eat it in this room).

the playground is a huge, colorful, plastic and metal structure covered with slides and monkey bars and swings and plastic rock climbing walls and... well, you get the picture. everything kids need to have fun at recess. there's also a small field with soccer nets. students can bring balls from their classrooms outside to play.

there are only four main classrooms used, since the grades are split up into four classes. other rooms are empty but can be used for separate group projects if the teachers allow it.

most teachers at power's academy live in these dorms during the night, though some live in st. michael's, too. during the night assigned teachers do regular patrols in the student's dorms to keep them safe.

the girls live in a two story building across the athletics area from the boy's identical building. the high school girls, grades 9-12, live on the second floor. the younger girls live on the first floor.

the boys live in a brick building directly opposite the girl's identical dorms. the high school boys live on the second floor and the elementary boys live on the first floor.

it's about a half hour walk, if you aren't a teacher and able to drive, to st. michael's from power's academy, or vice versa. students could always try to hitchhike if they wanted to.

in the middle of st. michael's sits a huge sport's centre building. it's the largest building in town and houses a pool, hockey rink, indoor soccer field, and running track. it is open from 7am to 11pm every day. on weekends the pool is open until 1am.

miscellaneous locations throughout st. michael's.

the residences of st. michael's are located here in separate sub boards for each house.

in the middle of the town sits a circular park with a trail, trees, benches, a children's playground, and a large hill that overlooks much of the surrounding area.

the very originally named coffee house is the 'hang out spot' in st. michael's. it was renovated from a house into a small two-story shop that sells donuts, coffee, and other baked goods. one room is arranged into a quiet sitting area.

st. michael's isn't a large town, so the mall isn't very large; it consists of about twenty stores, a small food court, and a small arcade.

this large, clear lake is a favourite spot for boats and swimmers in the summer. you can just see the other side's shore, from any point, if you stand on the shore. the fog that covers it on spring mornings makes it a beautiful sight. it's located on the outskirts of the town, about a ten minute drive on the highway away in the opposite direction from power's academy.

playing off of the town's name, the residents named its elementary school 'little angels'. it's a small one story building that teaches grades kindergarten to eight.

this brightly coloured playground is where the elementary students from st. michael's can spend their recesses playing and having fun. teenagers sometimes come here to hang out at night.

st. michael's has one small high school, one story high, for all of its teenagers.

the high school parking lot isn't huge, but has more than enough room to hold all of the vehicles of teachers and students alike. it's separated into sections for teachers, students, and visitors.
