Thirlcrest Academy

Thirlcrest Academy is a private educational institute, housed within the woodlands of Thirlcrest County, New England. Founded in 1972 by Neil D. Rhodes, the campus was constructed away from the general population deep within the brush of the Maine Pines. The institute serves as both a penal institution and educational campus, offering a number of intensive therapeutic resources for the means of offering extensive psychological backgrounds on students entering the campus. 
Serving as an alternative to standard juvenile hall education programs, Thirlcrest offers a semi-traditional schooling curriculum and setting, promoting the means of student privacy and decision and introducing them into far more suitable and familiar settings in contrast to the cold concrete and baren walls of a juvenile center. It's primary mission is set on the means of greater rehabilitation of vagrant youth to return them into the community as contributing and active members of society. 
To offer these accommodations and encourage socialization and involvement, the campus offers a number of student clubs that allow patrons to integrate into the campus and develop meaningful hobbies, varying from a number of educational programs such as the Astronomy Club, upwards to programs that encourage school pride such as Varsity and Intermural Sports; though often than not, the opportunities offered to these students and the independence that comes with this spirals into the development of cliques. 
Unbeknownst to Faculty on the campus grounds, Thirlcrest Academy bears a second world that lingers below the façade it displays to the world. This second-world is parallel to that of an entire criminal underworld, introducing a number of cliques with their own functions and opportunities that develop an eco-system within the campus; sustaining it all. 
Cliques operate with extreme bitterness and self-preservation through all means necessary to ensure that their operations are not halted or disrupted; resulting in individuals moving into selfless violence to maintain the structure of the clique in tact, and functioning with structures and pecking orders incomparable to standard friend groups and more so to that of a criminal syndicate with a number of positions and titles to define ones seniority and trust.
