Guess the School

Post by Umaroth »

Similar to the one for events, but giving wordplay hints for different schools!

For example:
Testing month, origin of helium, one word, indicates Mason (May has lots of tests, helium was originally thought to be from the sun, May+sun)

Cloudless drumlin, indicating Sunny Hills (a cloudless day would be sunny, drumlins are hills)

The things we think of to pass the time. This ended up becoming rather weird as the wordplay became more obscure.

Let's start easy:
Caramel Fjord High School
Troy SciOly 2019 - 2023
Captain 2021-2023
Former Events: Ecology, Water Quality, Green Gen, Ornithology, Forestry, Disease Detectives, Forensics, Chem Lab, Env Chem, Sounds, Dynamic Planet, Crime Busters, Potions & Poisons, Exp Design, Towers, Mystery Arch, Reach for the Stars, Mission Possible

Solon (Middle or High), as Sol is Spanish for sun, Sol-on. Solon is also another name for Draco, an "ancient Athenian lawmaker".

I have no regrets.

Correct, your turn.
