Lincoln Memorial High

A pretty-looking building that is sizable considering the small population of Verona. One possible explanation is that because of Verona's central position as a small town amongst small towns, many farming community kids commute via the bright yellow school buses. As a result of declining populations in the surrounding areas, there are many empty and unused classrooms that the kids are trusted to hang around in if the so wish – though most choose to stay in the cafeteria or even outdoors when it's not raining.

The school has a fairly good football team and puts an emphasis on sports in the curriculum. In previous years the small volleyball team won a state-wide championship, though Lincoln Memorial High boasts few winners. The teachers are warm and friendly, and sometimes forced to double up for subjects that they can. There are so few students that each year group fills at most one classroom in Maths, so electives are small, tight-knit groups.

On the grounds of the school, several memorial trees have been planted to remember the lives of the students lost in previous years. As the school is built on the hill, with the front entrance overlooking the main road, the cafeteria (which is on the other side of the building) overlooks a dreary looking forest, through which there is a well-worn trail.
