Weaver Academy for Performing and Visual Arts 

A relatively young magnet school where students choose a different art as a "major" and take classes in it. Students are collectively labeled and referred to by their major, each of which is characterized by a different set of traits and stereotypes. The eight art majors are: Visual Art, Dance, Drama, Piano, Classical Guitar, Orchestra, Music Production and Chorus.
The students of the school are generally known to the students of every other ("normal") high school in the county as emos, smokers, pot heads, and all-together weird. Weaver students often use their school as a an explanation of their own erratic behavior, as in "It's okay, I go to Weaver..." The student body has a reputation for being liberal, although it is home to surprisingly passionate group of intolerant right-wingers.
The school also has a tradition of employing a ridiculous mix of faculty that range from hopelessly passive to scarily bipolar.
It has also been remarked that the school and its inhabitants deserve their own reality television show, preferably on MTV as a Laguna Beach-esque spin off. This belief is based largely on the school's unbelievably high penchant for drama. Certain guys have been known to date every female in any particular major. Girls are fond of having "lesbain" phases, in other words, getting drunk-ish and making out with another girl, bragging about it, and then continuing to date in a heterosexual manner. Oh yeah, and then there was that time when one of the teachers was arrested for having sex with a student. And everybody knew about it.
A typical conversation at Weaver Academy for Performing and Visual Arts:
Dancer: Ugh. The Drama Students are soooo loud. Can we please not sing "Wicked" eighty times a day children?
Drama Student: "NO ONE MOURNS THE WICKED..."

Victoria School of Performing and Visual Arts 

Victoria School of The Performing and Visual Arts, as said by Aloona is a K-12 arts school located in dowtown Edmonton. Being apparently the only arts school in Edmonton, you'd think that it would have a bigger budget. But no. There are silverfish in the white porcelain waterfountains and the promise to relocate has been bouncing around for years. Besides the potential risk of asbestosis and the occasional library fire, Vic has proven to be a not so bad school.

Aloona, as a student at Vic was apparently forced to go there against her will. This could be noted in the resentful, bitter tone in her/his/it's definition. I am also a current student, but came on my own will and enjoying the place.

Vic is also known to carry one of the most vicious and stereotypical librarians out there. She is simply nown as "The Russian". She did not perish in the libary fire though to the dismay of many students.

First Time Student Goes To Water Fountain: AHHHHHH! What the fucK!?

Wiser Student With More Years At School: Do not drink from the porcelain fountains at Victoria School of Performing and Visual Arts.

Weaver Academy for the performing and visual arts 

Weaver academy is young magnet school that operates as both a performing/visual arts school and a technical careers school.

There's a strong sense of school spirit for both PVA (performing and visual arts) kids and the CTE (career and technical) kids.

The school colors are maroon and silver. The school animal is a Beaver, Otter, Octopi, or an Eagle depending on the day and the person your talking to. It doesn't really matter though because there are no sports , except for Ultimate Frisbee and sometimes basketball.

Weaver has some of the best art programs in the area with several honors and awards as well as state and national competition accomplishments. Weaver does a yearly volunteer program for special needs students.

Oh, and of course Weaver academy drama's best freind are Pinecrest Drama kids. Weaver Art kids are best friend with Elsewhere. And All of weaver is best friend with everyone.
Traditional Weaver Academy for the performing and visual arts jokes:

Weaver Drama kids do it better on stage.

Weaver voice kids do it better with a microphone.

Dancers do it better in leotards.

Art kids do it better in the gallery.

Piano kids do it better with pianos.

Strings kids do it better with strings.

Music production does it better with headphones.

city chicken 

A food native to Pittsburgh/Western Pennsylvania in which cubes of pork and/or veal are put on a short, wooden skewer, breaded, then baked and/or fried.

I've heard that city chicken originated during the Great Depression, when folks didn't have enough money to buy full cuts of meat, so they assembled meat scraps on a wooden skewer, creating a make-shift drumstick. Hence the name.
Are yinz havin' city chicken for dinner?
