Reception
The Noble Academy is often referred to by alumni and students alike as one of the worst schools of all time. Students often cite the staff enforcing ridiculous rules, the teachers being "bogus", and mention was often made of a conspiracy which suggests the school is secretly run by grasshoppers. Students have also said that the school cannot be one of the most diverse in the city if its student body is predominantly two races
