The education in Birch Grove is so high class that many parents want their children to realize that there are children less fortunate than themselves. Because of this the lone school house, which at it's peak rivaled such schools as Yale and Harvard and the most esteemed GBHS, was closed down so the children could go to the "school of hard knocks" Gowrie Memorial School in the neighbouring republic of Port Morien so they could learn what it was like to be a middle class student.
