Welcome to Redwood Reform Academy.


The staff would like to give you a little more information about our school. This is a school for juveniles and young adults to attend to get back on the right track. We encourage a learning environment while still including discipline and structure in our students daily lives. We believe that even if a student messes up they can still change their ways and get on the correct path. Students are expected to attend each class and be on time. Normal courses will be provided based upon the student's age. If a student does well they will be able to pick an elective for the following semester. We believe in getting our students ready for the future and hope that you have faith in the same.

Students will not be allowed off campus without a written note from a teacher or parent. They aren't given out regularly, however. One Saturday a month parents are allowed to come in for Parent Day. Breakfast is provided and students are allowed off campus on those days with their parent. We have top security at the campus and your child will be safe with us. We look forward to meeting the needs of you and your child.

Sincerely,
Dean Fillbrook

Redwood Academy is tucked away in the forest, with a decent sized campus. It has most everything a student would need, except freedom. The teachers tend to keep a strict watch and don't let the students get away with anything. These kids have come here for some reason. Whether they got into trouble with the law or their parents are just struggling to parent them.


If you've made it this far and are still interested, welcome! Teachers aren't held to the same ethical standards as normal schools. Most of them have graduated from the academy previously. Just a couple house keeping things, here are the rules:

1. No godmodding
2. Keep things mild, if things get heated take it to PMs
3. The above goes for fighting, no fighting in the OOC
4. Post characters in OOC before Character tab

student spots are filling up fast. Not that I am surprised. I don't mind being a teacher but trying to figure out why a 'reformed' person would teach. Neither of my characters would care about 'improving' others.

@KatherinWinter That's kind of the point though, isn't it? If you've gotten in trouble with the law, what is the likely hood of you staying out without being changed? So while some teachers are trying to better others, there are definitely those sticking around because it's easy and gives them a place to live, eat, etc.

Name: Gray Michaels
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Personality: A bit closed off, but once she starts to know and trust someone, she can be pretty fun to hangout with.
Appearance: She has dark brown hair with matching eyes and a pale complexion. She usually wears sweats and hoodie. She has a small tattoo of a bat on her wrist.
Why you are here: For about a year, Gray has been partying for hours on end, causing her to come home drunk and/or stoned 80 percent of the time. At one party, a neighbor called the police for noise and she was caught with drugs. So the court gave her a choice. Jail time and community service, Redwood. It's pretty obvious what she chose.
How long you've been at Redwood: 3 months.
Other: She is a proud Bisexual.

I'm guessing roommates will be randomly assigned?

@FalkiThomas Accepted.

@Xandrya Yes! If you have a suggestion for a roommate, feel free to message me. I may also take in to consideration how long people have been at the academy and they may get to pick if they've been there a while.

@FalkiThomas Why are you thanking me? I should be thanking you for joining! For a while I thought this was gonna flop. So thank you.

@everyone: I'm working on my two characters. It's gonna be a student and teacher. I was going to make them both male, but we have no female teachers yet. Would you guys like to see a female teacher or what are your thoughts about balancing it?

@Echoes For accepting my characters! :) You could have said no ;P

As for female teachers, it does sound good; she'd need to be a strong woman to work in this school! I don't think it matters too much at this point though - there are always options for bringing in a new female teacher in the future too :)

If they are teachers they don't need a place to live or eat. The characters I had in mind would need something more than that. I guess I will have to keep thinking about it.

@KatherinWinter All teachers live on campus. And most of them wouldn't have much experience after the school unless they were coming in to help better the kids and were trained educators. I'm not sure what you are thinking for your characters I guess.

@Echoes It's ok. I'll figure out something. The two characters I had in mind are really the 'caring teaching' sort. I will have to see if I can think of a reason for my excons to teach.
