Lamptons School for Young Women
Lamptons has been a school for almost 150 years, but A facility called Lamptons has be around since before anyone can remember, according to historical records it was built first, the City of Larange and it's surrounding communities rose up around it. The school ground's covers over 150 Acers of land and contains just about every facility a school would need. There are over 1,500 students an around 300 or more faculty and staff.
Lamptons is a boarding school and all students must live on campus until high school, even if there families live locally. Once a student enters high school they can apply to live off campus, each application is considered on a case by case basis. The only time a student is not required to live in the dorms is if they have a parent that is a member of the on campus faculty, in which case they may be permitted to stay with their parent, that right can be revoked at anytime. On campus faculty are all female teacher's or staff who are either unmarried or who live separate from their husbands during the school year. The also can not have any male children over the age of 4 living with them.
The school covers all grades pre-school through a college Masters program. However in order for a student to attend the collegiate programs, she must have high marks, have attended Lampton's high school for at least two years and graduated from Lampton high as a senior.
Before Lampton was a School it had many prior purposes, first as a crossroads, then a trading post, a fort and defensive outpost, a convent, a religious college, and then finally an all girls boarding school.
Jack is the first male to be employed or live on the school ground's in 100 years. He is only able to live here because his mother is the Headmistress of the school. In the beginning he is only permitted to be at his mother's house, the main offices and traveling in between. All other areas are off limits without a faculty escort and with a legitimate reason for his presence.
Curriculum and School Life
The curriculum of Lamptons School for Young Women follows a balanced approach, containing the basic standards of Reading/Wrighting, Arithmetic, History and science. But also contains electives and humanities.
Pre-school and kindergarten are centered around basic life and social skills along with basic development of the learning standards. But is also heavy in play and nap time to give the children time to adjust to the new school environment and being away from home for so long. The classrooms tend to be less organized and curriculum less structured. There is normally 2-3 teacher's and adult aids from the College per classroom.
First grade starts the children in the core structure standards, but still has long play periods and requires interactions with the younger students to aid in their adjustment. The classrooms and curriculum are more organized thought not as structured as the later grades. There is typically 1 teacher and 1 teacher's aid per classroom.
The Pre-school through first grade are kept from the other grades during recess and lunchtime and are separated by a chain link fence, allowing students to see each other and interact with each other but not allowing direct interaction or contact. This is primarily to prevent bullying by the older students during the younger students adjustment period.
Housing is similarly separated with the pre-school aged children sleeping and living in an open bay sleeping and living area with 8 beds bunked together and a onsite faculty member bunking with each group, normally an aid or advisor and not a teacher. Kindergarten and first grade students sleep together with one student from first grade bunking with a younger kindergarten student, again to assist with the transition.
Kindergarten and first grade students are permitted into the main dorms, to visit family members only, and must be back in their own rooms by 8pm. Older students are permitted and encouraged to visit with all of the younger students, especially family members, but must be out of the youth dorms by 8pm.
Second grade begins the more structured curriculum along with one elective, useually in the arts. Children also begin regular physically education but only thee times a week. The students are encouraged to explore their broader interests and to join after school teams and clubs, but are not required. Some clubs are not available yet except via faculty recommendation. Classrooms are very structured and standards for dress and behavior are strictly enforced. Each class is typically manged by 1 teacher, though a few still have 1 student aid.
Students are integrated with the rest of the school for recess and lunch, as well as brought into the main dorm complex. All students are now billeted two to a room and by grade, unless special accomodations are required. Every floor consists of twenty rooms assigned to one onsite faculty aid or advisor.
Third and fourth grade adds more extracurricular classes, fleshing out the students interests in the arts and physical education. All after school clubs and teams are now open, but still not required, some may require a tryout or application process, at the discretion of the faculty advisor.
Fifth grade continues to expand the curriculum of the students, physical education is now a full time class and humanities courses are now mandatory, starting with basic health and life skills. Student leadership is also introduced with the school electing two non-voting representatives from the fifth grade class to attend student council meetings. All classes now consist of 1 teacher with no student aids.
Sixth through eighth grade begins the adjustment process for high school. Students no longer have one teacher for all classes, but instead rotate classrooms for each class. At least one after school club or team is required though a student belonging to one of each is recommended. The elected members of the student council now gain a single vote during council meetings. Some faculty have suggested that the basic sexual education be moved to sixth grade, however since the students have very limited contact with members of the opposite sex the request was denied, as it was believed that students did not posses the emotional maturity to handle the curriculum. Students only get a single lunch break, and no longer receive recess periods.
Students are now housed in the middle School dorms with a senior or college age student given responsibility for their care as the floor prefect.
Nineth and tenth grade begins the students high school years, classes become even more structured, standards for dress and behavior are now strongly enforced with zero tolerance for misbehavior. Students with repeated violations can find themselves removed from the school and sent home. A suspension typically last for one month however more than two suspicions during High School will result in permanent expulsion from the school. Students are now required to attend one after school club and belong to one team, they can also participate in a committee with faculty recommendation. Courses in a second language are now required if not already taken. Basic sexual education is also mandatory during nineth grade. The representatives for the student council now each have one vote.
Note: The basic sex ed course is a short 1-week portion of the basic anatomy class, and consists of discussion on the female menstural cycle, what it's for, and what it means for 2 days, 2 days talking about pregnancy, 1 day talking about male anatomy, sperm, and ejaculation, and contraception with a heavier emphasis on the contraception part. Most teachers for the course want to get over the male anatomy part as quickly as possible as the students' minds are still immature and they tend to get somewhat rowdy while this subject is being talked about.
The students are now moved to the highschool dorms with one college student aid responsible for the entire building as prefect.
Eleventh and twelfth grade begins the students preparation for adulthood. All students are mandated to attend school for the first half of the day, where they will receive their basic standards courses along with their humanities and life skills courses. Government, economics and advance sexual education are included, which includes sexually transmitted diseases, alternative life style education and Transgender awareness. The classes are less structured, allowing the students to pick what year they take what courses. The second half of the day is for free study, where students are free to take elective courses, work as a student aid, work as part of a school committee or expand their basic education. After school clubs and teams are still mandatory unless a student is working as an aid or part of a committee.

In some cases though were only minor accomodations are necessary, those accomodations are provided. Some examples include...
Non-Human faculty

Temporary submission as a slave for no more than 24 hours is permitted as long as it doesn't interfere with your duty to the school.
Lamptons is also released from any liability or responsibility if a student becomes a slave. The parents or guardian of the effected student must take any grievances to the government of the outskirts community which the owner belongs too. If the owner is a member or relative of a member of the Faculty or Staff of Lamptons, the Headmistress has final say on the matter.
Bunnykin bonding is an exception and is permitted with students as long as it is understood that her bonded mate is not permitted on campus or to be brought around other Bunnykin students on or off campus without prior approval of the Headmistress.
Lamptons and age of consent
Lamptons as an all girls school with no male faculty or staff, has no age of consent laws or restrictions, preffering to govern each student by the general community guidelines and standards from which they come from. The final ruling on any age of consent issues falls on the Headmistress to resolve. The board if directors will back any decisions made by the Headmistress with the trust and belief that she will make her decision with the schools best interests in mind.
