At the beginning of each year, students are given a uniform and a new student ID.
Student IDs- Each student ID has a variety of uses so don't lose it. Student ID's open dorm rooms and lockers, as well as pay for laundry, student lunches, and items from student stores.
Uniforms- Student uniforms are different for each Year, to make student's easily identifiable. {{For now, 1st and 2nd years share the black uniform, 3rd and 4th years share the white uniform.}}
Uniforms are to be worn on School Days. But students are free to change out of them and wear their regular clothing during after school hours, and on Off Days.
Hours- For most students, School Days are between the hours of 9am until 4pm, Tuesday through Thursday, and 10am until 4pm on Mondays and Fridays. This schedule may be different for Year Four and Advanced Placement Students.
Student Clubs and Extracurricular Activities take place after school hours, and generally take place between 4pm and 6pm on Club Days. Each Club has their own designated days, so students may be in more than one, should their schedules allow.
Mealtimes- Students all share meal and break times throughout the school day. There are two break times, one in the morning and one in the afternoon, and a one hour lunch in the middle of the day.
Students are responsible for their own mealtimes outside of School Hours. All students have some sort of refrigerator in their room, as well as a small kitchenette for their use, otherwise they may use the Cafeteria. Cafeteria meals are purchased using the Student ID card. Regular mealtimes in the Cafeteria are as follows: 6am-8am Breakfast, 11am-1pm Lunch, 5pm-7pm Dinner, 9pm-11pm Late Night. On another note, the coffee shop is open til 1am on regular nights, and 3am during exam weeks.
Dorms- Each student is given a dorm room, in their respective gender wing of the dorm building. Each floor has a different style of dorm room, based on certain qualifications. The more modest dorm rooms are at the bottom for students paying their own tuition, or are in on scholarship. The dorm rooms on the top floors are rather luxurious and are for the more affluent students. Curfew for the dorms is Midnight, unless pre-approved by their respective headmaster.
Top floor dorm rooms have laundry in their rooms. For everyone else, there is a public laundry, per floor, per wing of the dormitories. Regardless of where you do your laundry, you must swipe your student ID to activate them. The Laundry room is available 24/7 for all students.
Weapons Policy- It should be fairly common knowledge that weapons are prohibited from use on school grounds, and are strictly forbidden in the school itself. Students are allowed to carry weapons for self-defense in the dorms and around the rest of the grounds with special permission. Should students attack one another with these weapons, they will be suspended, or expelled and forced to go through legal proceedings.
Lowerclassmen- First and Second Year students are here mostly to focus on their human education. The basics of human education, things like math, science, literature, history, and the like will be taught exclusively to First and Second Years. During this time, the students may get to know their upperclassmen, and decide whether or not they wish to remain at the academy.
Upperclassmen- Third and Fourth Year students will focus on the studies of Harbinger History, Harbinger Magics, Trials, and obtaining mounts. They will focus exclusively on the Harbinger aspect of the school. If they have failed any of their human education courses, they will need to still take them as they reach their upper years.
Third Year Students- The Third Year students will receive their amulets, which will hold their abilities as a Harbinger, upon reaching the Third Year. However, in order to do this, they must have been in the school for the entire career, meaning from First Year on. ((Each of the amulets is listed in the Harbingers informational.))
Fourth Year Students- The Fourth Year students are the only students permitted to try and bond with a mount, however all students are welcome within the stables to help take care of the creatures that live there.
Fourth Year student also undergo various ceremonies to test whether or not they are worthy of becoming a fully fledged harbinger. The ones that do not continue along that path, I.E. fail their trials, may stay behind an extra year and try again, but most return to society with their education in store, but their abilities and memories of being a prospective harbinger erased. Those that do not wish to return to humanity may stay on as staff members.
Work- Students are allowed to work on the island in either city. Shadowhaven's establishments are open year round and allow for students 15 and up to begin working. Oceanview is half an hour away by car, and has many establishments that are only open during the Summer months. Oceanview also allows students 15 and up to work. Students that wish to work ages 16 and lower must have a Work Permit, which will be provided by the school. Ages 17 and higher do not require a Work Permit, but may still apply for one up to the age of 19 if they so desire.
