All English classes are held in the west wing of the second floor of Southridge High School. English class may be drab and boring, but... well, it's just drab and boring.

Shhh! No talking in the library! Fortunately, Mrs. Hahn, the ancient librarian that's constantly leering at the students from behind her desk, is a little hard of hearing.

Separated from the rest of Highland Beach by the sea itself and accessible from a number of bridges reaching over the narrow stretch of water, Stonegate Island is where the richest of the rich reside. It is, in essence, a private island in which the well-to-do inhabitants of the city can live in peace and privacy.

Built on a large hill overlooking the beach, Oceanview Terrace is a well-to-do neighborhood with its share of affluent and cultured individuals. A lot of "old money" lives in Oceanview, whereas most of the new money has opted to move out onto the Island instead. People do crazy things to live in places like Oceanview, and it's a regular sight to see people with beautiful houses practically devoid of any furnishings for its inhabitants living above their means.

Located within the Village Harbor Subdivision, the Links are a series of apartment buildings built right in front of the prestigious Links golf course.

The complex itself is very large and houses all different types of people. No posts were ever made to this subforum, but it is included for the sake fo completeness.

Not all of Highland Beach is sunshine and palm trees. Some people simply don't have the means to make it financially. Those people usually live in Clifton Court, an older neighborhood that hasn't been renovated since Village Harbor was constructed.

Sure, it's a little grungy, a little dirty... but Shooters is almost like a tradition in Highland Beach. Some claim that their food is the best in the whole town. Others come for the concerts held on the second story, and still others flock into Shooters to loiter in the basement pool room. Open 24 hours a day, it's the perfect place to hide out when the parental units are driving you nuts.

Being a coastal town, a long strip of beach occupies Highland Beach's western shoreline. Lifeguard towers are set up at various locations to keep the oceans safe for all to swim in.
