After the rebuilding of the school, a tormented [[Spike]] initially took residence in the basement. During the first day of school, Dawn and two other students became trapped in the basement where they were attacked by a group of vengeful manifestations until Xander destroyed the talisman keeping them alive.<ref name=":1" /> The Seal of Danthalzar was located in the basement and was only discovered when Jonathan and Andrew dug it up out of the ground. The seal was a direct entrance to the Hellmouth, containing thousands of [[Turok-Han]] vampires; many attempts were made to open it. Buffy and the [[Potential Slayer]]s used the seal to enter the Hellmouth and commence the [[battle at the Hellmouth]].<ref name="Chosen" />
Despite being on the site of a [[Hellmouth]], most students and faculty members continued with their lives, living in ignorance of the supernatural forces that cursed their town.

Revision as of 11:01, 13 July 2020

Welcome to Sunnydale High. There's no running in the halls, no yelling, no gum chewing. Apart from that, there's only one rule: if they move, kill them.
―Principal Wood[src]

Sunnydale High School was a public high school located in Sunnydale. It was headed by Principal Robert Flutie up until his death in 1997,[1] and then by Principal Snyder. The original school was destroyed on the Class of '99's Graduation Day battle against the Mayor Richard Wilkins.[2] It was rebuilt and reopened in 2002, headed by Principal Robin Wood,[3] until it was destroyed yet again with the rest of Sunnydale in 2003.[4]

Campus

The campus itself consisted of a large main, two story building with a front entrance behind a walkway. Its interior mainly included halls lined with lockers and doors leading to each classroom. When it was rebuilt, its design was changed dramatically from the previous structure, taking a more modern appearance and having a much larger walkway in its front view. The front of the school contained a sign that said in Latin "Formatia trans sicere educatorum" ("Enter all ye who seek knowledge").[5] The basements also contained a room where the Seal of Danzalthar, an ancient seal that could open directly into the Hellmouth, was located.

Library

Sunnydale High facilities included a library located around the middle of the school over the exact place of the Hellmouth.[6] The library acted as the Scooby Gang's main base of operations and strangely was not often used by the students with the exception of the more studious.[5] Cordelia Chase herself did not enter the library until she needed the gang's help as she claimed that she "had a life."[7] The library has been known to give students "the wiggins" and, when Rupert Giles took the position as librarian, he added many historical volumes and biographies[8] notably about demonology and the occult.[9]

After the school's reconstruction, the site of the old library was replaced by the Principal's office[3] and according to former librarian, Giles, it consisted of nothing but computers.[10] However, this was likely an exaggeration, as a library with books was the place where Dawn befriended Cassie Newton and the base of the Cult of Avilas.[11]

Quad

A prominent area was the quad, a large exterior area located at the left of the school with a gate at the end of quad. The quad had benches, palm trees, a water fountain, and a clock tower where in 1999, the heavily bullied and ignored Jonathan Levinson almost killed himself.[12] In 1997, the Pack sought fresh prey before thinking of Herbert the Pig.[1] The invisible Marcie Ross pushed Harmony Kendall down a staircase, breaking her leg.[7] In 1998, Oz accepted himself like a werewolf here.[13]

When all the student girls fell in love with Alexander Harris under Amy Madison's spell, Harmony saved Xander from Willow Rosenberg (who was also charmed) who tried to kill him with a hatchet breaking her heart.[14] Cordy rejected the Cordettes and decided to be Xander's girlfriend. Humiliated by the Cordettes, Cordelia stated her wish to her new friend Anyanka, sending her into another reality where the quad is almost empty.[15] Many organized events occurred in the quad, such as the announcement of the Mayfair Queen,[7] pep rallies,[12] and the graduation of the Class of '99.

Lounge

The school possessed a lounge room contained among the hallways to the left of the entrance. The lounge had tables, couches and artwork displayed on the walls, where students could sit down, talk and eat lunch in between classes. The Scooby Gang tended hang out in the lounge when not in class or in the library.[16] In 1997, parent teacher night, organized by Buffy and Sheila Martini, was held in the lounge before the school was attacked by vampires.[17] The students also completed their vocational aptitude tests at the lounge before the Career Fair where the assassin Patrice (disguised as police officer conducting the students selected for law enforcement) attempted to kill Buffy.[18][19] Snyder required all students to sell the supernatural chocolates Milkbar for the school brass band.[20]

Cafeteria

The school dining facility.[7] In 1997, Dr. Stephen Gregory's beheaded body was found here by Buffy and Cordelia.[21] In 1998, James Stanley conjured a large number of snakes in the cafeteria. This resulted in the school being temporarily shutdown and the Sadie Hawkins dance being cancelled.[22]

Buffy Summers collapsed in the school cafeteria due to the large number of thoughts that plagued her mind when she had telepathy; in that moment she heard the thought of someone who wanted to kill all the students. It was later discovered that it was the Lunch Lady, who tried to kill Xander with a butcher knife in the cafeteria after he found her pouring rat poison in the student's lunch. Buffy came to the rescue and overwhelmed the Lunch Lady.[12] The Scooby Gang had their exchange of the Box of Gavrok for Willow with the Mayor at the cafeteria after school hours.[23]

Computer classroom

The computer class taught by Jennifer Calendar (1997–1998), then replaced by still student Willow (spring 1998). Moloch the Corruptor mesmerized students like David Kirby and Fritz Siegel. It was here that David was killed by Fritz under the orders of Moloch after betraying them.[24]

In 1998, Jenny deciphered the remaining text of the Ritual of Restoration before Angelus killed her and destroyed the computer containing the deciphered text.[5] Jenny had saved the information on a floppy disk that was eventually found by Willow.[25]

Gym

The gymnasium was where indoor sports events were held, such as basketball matches with other schools.[26] Cheerleading practice and auditions were held in the gym; in one of these auditions Amber Grove's hands combusted when she was cursed by a witch.[26] and Dawn Summers gave a disastrous performance.[27]

When heavy storms occurred, all regular gym classes would be cancelled and students were instead forced to play dodge ball.[1] Self-defense classes were also taught during the full moon after a string of werewolf attacks in 1998.[13]It was also the room where, while protecting Billy Palmer, Buffy was attacked by the Monster.[28]

Football field

An outdoor area where football was practiced and played with opposing teams from other schools. Xander questions Cordelia in vain regarding Emily Djemanowicz's murder.[29] Rupert Giles and Jenny Calendar attended a football game on their first date. At the same game, Cordelia, a cheerleader, was kidnapped by Daryl Epps.[30] The Peruvian Bodyguard attack here Xander and the false Ampata Gutierrez, a life-stealing Inca mummy.[31] The Scooby Gang attended a football game which included Hogan Martin.[12] When the school was rebuilt, Dawn Summers fell in love with R.J. Brooks when she saw him with his magical letterman jacket while he was practicing on the field.[27]

Pool and steam room

The swimming pool located inside the school for the Razorbacks' swim team to practice and compete in. It had a locker room and a steam room. The steam room was exclusively for swim team members and was used by Coach Carl Marin to provide the swim team with steroids via aromatherapy. The pool room also lead to a utility room which contained a water hole where Marin kept the students who turned into fish-like monsters due to the steroids. The water hole was also connected to the sewers which allowed the monsters to roam around the school and the rest of Sunnydale.[32]

Shower and changing rooms

The shower and dressing rooms were located inside the school for the students to change and clean up during PE classes. In 1997, Aura discovered the corpse of Chris Boal hidden inside her dressing room locker, frightened.[8] Cordelia menaced Amy Madison (in reality Catherine Madison), provoking her fury.[26] Buffy was almost killed by electrocution in the shower by Fritz under Moloch's orders.[24] Month later, Emily Djemanowicz was killed by Marc in the females' dressing room,[29] and Mitch Fargo was attacked by a flying baseball bat in the males'.[7] In 1998, persuaded that Larry Blaisdell was a werewolf, Xander is surprised to find the boy hiding his gay orientation.[33] Later, Xander is attacked by Cameron Walker, who was transformed into one of the fish-like monsters.[32]

Auditorium

The school had an auditorium where the Sunnydale Talent Show was held, including one in 1997 where a demon named Marc posing as a student began killing participants and extracting their organs in order to retain human form, ending at his death which occurred just before the talent show commenced.[29] When her nightmare becomes reality under influence from Billy Palmer, Willow accompanied Aldo Gianfranco on stage here as a soprano to perform Madame Butterfly.[34] The school's performance of Romeo and Juliet where Andrew Wells released a pack of Flying Monkeys was probably held here. In a dream, Willow was present here for play in a representation of Death of a Salesman alongside Harmony, Buffy, and Riley Finn, staged by Giles.[35]

Principal's office

The office of Robert Flutie (?–1997), Snyder (1997–1999), and Robin Wood (2002–2003). It was the site of Flutie's death at the hands of a possessed group of students when they were called to his office and devoured him (the official theory being that he was attacked by wild dogs).[1]

When the school was rebuilt, the office was placed where the library use to be, meaning it was directly over the Hellmouth. As a vampire hunter, Wood kept an arsenal of bladed weapons concealed in a cabinet inside his office.[36] In 2003, it was the place where Willow launched the spell to activate all the Slayers.

Basement

The basement level of the school with a boiler room. In 1997, student Laura Egler isolated herself there to smoke a cigarette and was beaten by the Ugly Man.[28] In 1998, a tunnel was made in the boiler room that led to the location of the Bezoar, who used its offspring, distributed via eggs in Health Class, to possess the faculty and student body and make them mine underground. This was stopped when Buffy killed the beast.[37]

After the rebuilding of the school, a tormented Spike initially took residence in the basement. During the first day of school, Dawn and two other students became trapped in the basement where they were attacked by a group of vengeful manifestations until Xander destroyed the talisman keeping them alive.[3] The Seal of Danthalzar was located in the basement and was only discovered when Jonathan and Andrew dug it up out of the ground. The seal was a direct entrance to the Hellmouth, containing thousands of Turok-Han vampires; many attempts were made to open it. Buffy and the Potential Slayers used the seal to enter the Hellmouth and commence the battle at the Hellmouth.[4]

School life

Something weird is going on. Isn’t that our school motto?
―Xander[src]

Despite being on the site of a Hellmouth, most students and faculty members continued with their lives, living in ignorance of the supernatural forces that cursed their town. The occurrence of strange events and bizarre deaths were ongoing, yet forgotten when Principal Snyder came up with flimsy rationalizations, often blaming gang-related PCP.[17]

Deaths due to supernatural causes was common among both students and teachers. Larry Blaisdell was certain at the start of his senior year that it would be the best football season ever, so long as they can "focus, keep discipline and not have quite as many mysterious deaths,"[38] and the school paper The Sunnydale High Sentinel even had its own obituary section.[12] Despite this, the Class of '99 had the lowest mortality rate of any graduating class in the history of Sunnydale, with at least around 30 student deaths (including sirings) over three years.[39]

Apart from that, life on Sunnydale High still continued with their very own "it girl" group, called the Cordettes, and many school social functions, including basketball,[26] football,[12] cheerleading,[26] swing choir,[40] homecoming dances,[41] and foreign student exchange programs.[31]
