[@Altered Tundra]: Thanks for the advice.
[@Imaginary]: That is neat I guess, about 'write your characters more maturely than actual children that age.'
[@Dinh AaronMk]: World Building, that's something I have in spades mostly because I am the creator of a massive multiverse called Jaina'Res Multiverse. As well, as a secondary side story classified as the Main Realm, in terms its an Alternate Universe Storyline slightly based in Real Life. Let's just say the Jaina'Res Multiverse is about 150,000 times larger than our known Universe, mostly because of there's no Dark Matter and it has massive 'Suns' in the middle of each universe called Universal Suns.

So I can turn anything on its head, mostly because I take my time in world building that's why I create profiles, mostly.

I'm not even thinking of catagorizing it into its own artist's universe as you're proposing, or thinking, or one or both it seems. But rather to consider some overlooked things.

Even if it's a fictional school, what city is it in? Is it fictional or non-fictional? If it's fictional where is the city located? If it's in our "world" then where is it in relation to familiar locations? Even knowing where it is in the continental United States is a helpful clue-in for what it'd be like on some fundamentally intricate details. As an example: basing something out of New England or even coastal New England would mean that stuff like lobster would be basically street food.

If it's a real city like Boston or Bangor (to stick with the New England theme) then we have some readily established details about the environment. Or if it's in its own fictional town then there's so much more basic information that's helpful that doesn't even need to be exact. And everything I've seen to that attempt has been lacking in everything but the town name.
