Perhaps creating a user group for this would allow us to clear things up a bit?

Do you think it's really crucial to create a user group? No need to get extreme for no reason. If you think it is, of course, then go ahead. Maybe it would be better this way.
Anyway, just to calrify some things about your timetable problems:
All lessons are ninety minuets long.
School starts at 9 AM every morning and ends in 5 PM every evening. That's just enaugh time for about five lessons every day, including five minuete breaks between lessons to allow students to get to their new class end one thirty minuets long launch break.(at 1 PM)
After 5 PM you are basically free to do whatever you want as long as you don't leave the grounds.
By 12 PM you are sussposed to be in your rooms, sleeping, with the lights off.
Every day has other lessons in it, except for sunday, which is free, and saturday, which is a day entirely reserved to club activities et cetera.
For nocturnal students, like most vampires, school starts at 9 PM and lasts until 5 AM, with a launch(pack of cold blood?) at 1 PM.
Werewolves naturally get day offs when the moon is full. Mages and fae get days off at certain auspicious dates to perform important rituals.

All right, then, my schdule will be modified as follows:

Phys. Ed. (could be the same as Athletics, I don't really know) 9-10:25
Pre-Calc 10:30-11:55
English 12-1:25
Lunch 1:30-1:55
Mundane Science 2-3:25
History 3:30-4:55
"Werewolf Psych" w/ Dr. Richards still at 8AM on the first day of the school week.

If that's all right with everyone else.

Sven realized he needed to get going if he was going to make it to gym class. The last thing I want is to show up to gym out of breath. Fortunately, the gym was by the medical area, so he didn't have too far to go. In fact, he was the first person there; not even the teacher seemed to be around at the moment. With little else to do, Sven sat in front of the bleachers until someone else arrived.

Maybe a list of example classes to choose from, Oneirius? You know, so we don't all end up with completely different ones. Just a thought. =]

I was gonna try to keep my vague, so as I could slip in with people who have the same lessons as me. Also, wouldn't the fae be allowed slightly odd time tables, due to their essentially chaotic nature

Good thinking, ThreeWords. Time works in very strange ways in Faerie. I think it would depend on how deeply within the realm a particular student comes from. Those who live right on the borders between Faerie and earth should not have too much problem. Beings from the great, dreamy beyond may be allowed to appear to class whenever. They are going to have a hard time telling themselves apart from the world around them, we should not weight their minds with other stuff for a while.

As for a list of example courses:
Mundane
Mathematics
English
Science(Most students learn two subjects out of Chemistry, Biology, Physics and Computers)
Phys ed
Bible
Literature
Civil studies
History
Music/art
Supernatural
Mad Science(We have mad biology, mad chemistry, mad physics, mad electronics/mechanics, mad psychology...)
Megaverse Geography(Where is Faerie in relation to the Jungian Collective Subconscious? How many countries of the dead are there in the underworld? What is the capital of Heaven?)
Magic: Theoretical
Magic: Alchemy
Magic: Internal & Spiritual
Magic: Demonology
Magic: Creation
Magic: Destruction
Magic: Transportation
Magic: Manipulation
Faerie History
Faerie Zoology/Anthropology
History of the Invisible
Vampire politics
Lucid Dreaming
Oaths and Vows
Shapeshifting
The Divine Tongue
The Infernal Tongue
Spirit Travel
.......................................
These are just a few examples, you are free to come up with whatever you like.

Can anyone take these main subjects? Eg can Jon learn teleporting, or can Elijah learn magic, despite be an automaton?

Also, all these OOCs would be better in a user group, don't you think? I reckon we should start one up, if only to keep the thread tidy

i hope this works! [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/groups/view/Saint-Poemandres-Boarding-School]

Sam turned to Carolina, cooling down as the fires went out, and his eyes returned to solid black.
"It's not that hard, I think I have figured out a way to harness Thaumatical energy mechanicaly, creating machines which generate magic. Could be worth an incredible amount of money to Humans and non-magical creatures like yourself."

Sam stood up as Dillan entered, his body heating up again at the sight of him.
He is nervous, he is afraid.
"Hi Dillan, it's nearly time for class. I just popped in for some coffee, did you sleep well?"
his voice layered with false senserity, his eyes gleaming with visions of the inferno.

As Mister West collected her paper from her, Lillith quietly slipped her timetable out of her bag to find out her lessons for the rest of the day. It seemed that Theoretical, Alchemical and Internal/Spiritual Magical Studies filled the row for Monday, along with one class of 'The Infernal Tongue' and 'The Divine Tongue' each.

She had been gifted with a Tuesday that was devoted entirely to Arts, 4 hours with which she would be able to create an image of whatever she wished.

Her Wednesday was odd. It seemed that her timetable remained eerily blank of regular lessons, instead telling her to report directly to the school's counselor.

Thursday lay with 5 hours of lessons with a break during the third hour; Phys Ed for two hours, Break, Advanced Maths and Alchemical Magical Studies.

And Friday was 3 hours of lessons long. Advanced Maths, Internal/Spiritual Magical Studies and then Theoretical Magical Studies.

She tried to remember as much of this as possible, though so many lessons seemed to exist here that her old school had not been able to provide. Most strange were those two lessons, 'The Infernal Tongue' and 'The Divine Tongue'. She wondered what they could actually be before she gave up on trying to understand and decided to go to her next lesson. Theoretical Magical Studies waits for no creature.

Well I've made my timetable work. I've got 7 lessons, split over 17 hours a week. Now I'm going to have to find out who Lilli's lessons correlate with and then put her relationship status with them as classmates... Who was just in Advanced Maths? I'm led to believe that it was Lillith, Elijah, Nathan and Alex.

Also, timetable.

Dillon could feel the negativity flowing from Sam, worming it's way past the false sweetness in his voice. "Well, he obviously doesn't like me. Well done, Dillon - it's the second day and you already have an enemy..."
He took Sam's false voice and raised him a forced smile. "Uh, yeah.......thanks. I trust you had a good night?"
He walked past him towards the kitchen cupboard. "I'm just gonna get some breakfast before class. Then I'll be out of your way."
He poured himself a bowl of cereal he found in the back of the cupboard, and began eating it quickly where he stood. "Well, this is awkward..."

"Indeed, I spent most of it talking to Nathan." Sam said voice layered with honesty, he looked towards Dillon. Sam's hair flickering with flames now.
So close you could tear him apart, or reach out and drag him with you to the depths of hell.

Keeping mine vague, my bad. I feel it's easier to slip into other peoples lessons and that, it's not like Max has came here to learn antyhing in particular, so I hope that's alright. Also, sorry I haven't been posting a lot, I had to go the hospital yesterday and I just got back now. I'll have a proper full post soon enough :)

"Oh yeah, Nathan. The Liche, right? He seemed nice." Dillon watched surprisedly as Sam's hair seemed to catch fire before his eyes.
"Um.......you got a little..." he made a vague gesture at his own head, a half-curious, half-worried look on his face. "Does that.............normally happen?"
He stirred the last of his cereal around in the bowl with his spoon, watching to see if it made any interesting patterns. "I wonder how long this has been there... It tastes awful."

@Gorrister: It's okay, I definitely know how you feel. I hope you're alright.

Don't worry, we know how that can be. So long as you get healthy, we can wait. BTW: we seem to be sorting out our schedules in our RP group. Check your PM inbox for the invitation.

Carolina busied herself with finishing up the coffee and pouring it into cups. She avoided looking at the both of them, completely embarrassed, her cheeks bright pink. She wanted to just come out and explained what had happened but her mouth ran dry when she opened it to speak. At the mention of Sam?s head, she glanced up at it, a puzzled look crossing her face. That?s the second time something like that seemed to happen. I?ll have to look up why later when I get a chance. Maybe I?ll stop by the library during my break; I?ve been meaning to check it out anyways. She handed Sam his cup before starting to sip her own.

Hope everything?s okay Gorrister! I tried getting into the rp group from the invitation but it?s not allowing me to post in the group chat so I?m not sure if it?s still pending or if I?m messing it up somehow but I?ll get my timetable up there as soon as I figure it out.

Dillon finished up his cereal and began washing his bowl in the sink. He could tell Carolina was uncomfortable from the way she kept silent, avoiding eye contact. "Hmm..........is that because of me, I wonder?"
He decided to try and break the awkwardness with a stab at conversation. "So, Carolina, I've been thinking about what you said - you know, about learning to control my skin, and I think they have an Internal and Spiritual Magic class here. Maybe that's a good place to start? Or I could always try and see if they have any specialist teachers..........it's worth a try, at least."

Nathan stood up and walked over to the teachers desk

"Pardon me sir, but considering that I am finished my test this early, do you mind if i leave early?"

The teacher nodded

"Of course Nathan, I can see by your test you know your stuff"

And with a bow, Nathan left the class
