Where the drama Begins[/center]
Oakwood Academy resides in the small town of Oakwood, Colorado just past Denver. Though it isn’t the biggest town around, Oakwood is known for hosting smaller houses of the rich and famous. Many teen stars have some of the greatest summers here and some adults even claim it for their home where they raise a family. Another thing Oakwood is famous for is its wonderful academic system, at the heart of which is Oakwood Academy. The outside world sees Oakwood for a quaint, cozy town where everybody “knows your name,” but the locals tell a whole different story.
What most people hear about are the retired actors and actresses that come here to build a stable home, but what you don’t hear is the cries at night from the girl down the street as her father beats her, or the slurred words of poor Mrs. Mayfield whose husband was just killed in the war and has turned to alcohol for support. Of course, the whole town isn’t like that, you have your average “just-like-a-sitcom” families and your “I-can-afford-to-buy-Juicy-Couture” type families and of course your families that are barely getting by, living in the cheapest apartment building. The only escape for many of the town teens is Oakwood Academy.
Not that Oakwood is a bad town, not at all, it has plenty of great things. There are the wonderful shopping centers surrounding the people. They also have some of the best pizza parlors around and of course what kind of Colorado town would they be if they didn’t have ski slopes? There are also the ultra luxurious houses up the road from the shopping district and there are five star hotels splattered all over the town, the Hilton being the most popular. So come and join the mischief, drama and fun at Oakwood Academy.[/blockquote]
