Dame Adorabelle's Academy for the Magically Gifted and Talented, often referred to as simply Dame Adorabelle's Academy, is a magic education boarding school in Havensborough, Centralia. The school was founded in 1870 by Dame AdorabelleWallace, who served as the school's Headmistress before her retirement in 1929.

Campus

The Academy occupies a rather large campus in the southwest area of Havensborough, at the corner of W. Shannon Avenue and Redbird Lane Road.

Library

Dame Adorabelle's Library is housed in an old brick building, most likely dating to the late 19th century. The front entrance features of a prominent set of double doors, up a few stairs from the courtyard. To comply with PrincessJeanette's accessibility mandates, a wheelchair ramp was added many years ago.

Upon entering the library, one immediately faces the front desk: a workspace enclosed by a counter on all sides. The service desk seems relatively modern compared to its surroundings: a computer with a flat panel display sits on the left-hand counter, and the area is lit by overhead flourescent lights suspended from the ceiling above.

To either side of the front desk are study tables, each flanked by one or two rows of bookshelves. The majority of the books, however, are kept on the upper floor. One can walk around the front desk to the rear of the building, where two ornately decorated staircases run up from the center to either side of the upper floor--a quiet, dimly lit area with even more stacks of books and a few more, smaller study spaces.1

Dormitory Circle

adorabelles_dorms.png Dame Adorabelle's has two dormitories, East and West. Each dormitory building forms a rough semi-circle around a courtyard, with a smaller building containing faculty living quarters occupying the space between the dorms.

A rivalry of sorts has developed between students residing in East Dormitory and those residing in West Dormitory.
