Woodrow Amity High School

Woodrow Amity High School/Woodrow Amity High is located in the Eastern side of Woodrow Amity, just outside the commercial area of the town itself. Students attend the school to learn and become independent adults. It's the primary setting where majority of the story, R1SK (15 Series), takes place in and the only school shown throughout the comic.

History
Woodrow Amity High was originally a large academy called Amenity Academy or AA for short. It not only taught its students, but housed them as well. Because of the growing population and paranoia of the town, many adults in the past created the academy to house the children in a safe location and reduce the crowded households.

Due to the origins of how Woodrow Amity was created, fear and worry was a topic of most of the new residence of the budding town, and to reduce the possibility of abduction and disappearances, the solution was to create AA. Children of ages 13 to 18 years of age were enlisted to stay at the new academy and attend classes with absolute punctuality. While many of the parents found this to be the safest option of protection, a small portion of the families did not like the idea of separation between them and their own children; considering that the years they were to move out and move into AA was an important fundamental stage of growth.

Amenity Academy
With it once being an academy, many of the children moving into the facility were taught high standard education and lived in accommodating dorms. Wurkly Woodrow, the first mayor of the time, made sure that the education given was of high quality as well as making the dorms welcoming for new students, costing a large amount of the town's resources directed toward it's funding and creation.

Amenity Academy stayed the way it was for a few years before funding of school was starting to ruin the town. Of course with the growing years, and the calm century, the town itself has lost it's original fear and paranoia thus creating the consensus of changing AA to what it is now today.

After a few years, the original name of the high school was then recreated to a higher education University. With it's curriculum and classes being appropriate to the original housing, boarding type of school.
