A now defunct Franciscan, 4 years liberal arts college that had once been known for its education and music programs. The school officially closed in 2020, citing the pandemic and financial challenges. These challenges included depreciating assets, falling enrollment, rising costs and excesses amongst the c-suite.
The troubles likely began around 2011, when where was a push to change an introverted student body into an extroverted one. This led to a lot of drama, where favoritism deprived many victims of abuse and harassment the help they needed while allowing rumors and accusations against others to go unquestioned. Issues of racial inequality also began to shine forth as the dorms, which were built around the 2009 class year, were predominantly African American, only for those students to have almost no representation in the graduations that took place during the school's final years. Students had called out the recruiting practices as being predatory, but the admins did not react until a former Dean used the situation to form the premise of her thesis, resulting in her removal around 2015/16.
Demolition of the main building and dorms began in 2022 after the Green Bay Diocese of the Catholic Church rejected a proposal to repurpose the school as an area wide, k-12 school. The diocese opted to build a new school, instead. Also around this time, the school's former president filed suit against the Franciscan Sisters alleging contract violations. This suit was dismissed.

If "Couture" is the design of fashionable clothes to a person's specific tastes and measurements, then "Lake Couture" is expressed as clothing explicitly designed for life on the lake with a casual and artfully stressed rugged flair. Each "Lake Girl" or "Lake Guy" likely has their favorite shoes to protect their feet and deal with water and walk on boats. It mixes bikini tops, shredded cut-off shorts, cropped shirts, hoodie sweatshirts, lifestyle quotes, and maybe a touch of sparkle, depending on the lake region.
"Did you see Jane when she showed up at 'Party Cove' on Memorial Day? She was decked out in Lake Couture, American flag bikini top, short-shorts, and a bedazzled $4 Bass Fishing trucker hat!"

A small neighborhood in Rockville, Maryland. Known for their deer and hatred toward the neighborhood next to them, Aspen Hill. Consists of very expensive houses that aren't that great. Great place to spend Halloween night in. Located around Lake Frank. Very strict Home Owner's Association.
Bob: Whoa, are we seriously going to Manor Lake?
Joe: Yeah, they have all of those huge candy bars for Halloween.

Lake Forest Academy(or LFA), a boarding school located in Lake Forest IL. Demographics contain: white people, white people, and white people!(Jk but srsly it's like mostly white people it's Lake Forest IL let's be fr).
A pretty damn wealthy school(it's a boarding HS in Lake Forest bro) with a fun little gym overlooking their volleyball court! Their hockey team is just strange. Straight up strange. Beware! They bite(they won't actually but they'll bark at you if you're a visiting team while on all fours and do some weird canoeing motion). Embarrassingly and hilariously just bad. If you try to speak up about the harrassment from their students during volleyball games the school will make up some bs about "mad dog" being a core part of their school spirit!! Also they literally cannot get names right despite being given team rosters. If you're POC, you WILL be confused with literally any other person with a skin color that shares 4 hex digits with you. Regardless of your different jersey numbers.

A strangely modern shithole full of the finest menagerie of western high school America you have ever seen. 2000 students worth of goths, artsy kids, and… them (furries). The mascot is a shitty minimalist kangaroo, in an odd purple. Incessant and tacky branding everywhere… the only thing it’s got going for it is the fact that it’s almost decently funded.
With some of the worst football in its league, and the apparently a stoner population, it really is one of the high schools of all time.
All of the men’s bathrooms reek of super fruit mango fruit tooty vapes, and it isn’t an uncommon sight for 6 lads to be standing around vaping in each others faces, no homo.
Oh and some of the weirdest clubs ever. Cereal club? Anime club? Rhythm game club?
Also the site of the kangaroof sex (or the kang bang) which is now considered the greatest event in school history
