South Park Elementary

South Park Elementary is the fictional school in South Park. It is one of the oldest known locations on the show, and has appeared in two incarnations.

New School
In "Butt Out" the school was burnt down after Stan, Kyle, Cartman and Kenny had been smoking. They tried to hide their cigarettes from Mr. Mackey and threw them in the dumpster without putting them out The dumpster then caught fire and burnt down the school. It has the same sort of classrooms (which haven't seemed to change) and same offices. The only differences are the changed cafeteria and the outside of the school (the windows have panes, the door seems to now have a handle, and the colors are brighter although this could be an animation affect.) in The List, Kyle wanted to burn down the school because of all the bullying and taunting but luckily Wendy and Stan stopped him before he could carry out his act.

3rd Grade Classroom
The 3rd Grade classroom was seen up until "4th Grade" in which the boys changed classes. It had various desks and green walls and a chalk board with live-action photographs of animals around the walls. Also, the alphabet bar above the chalkboard is poorly structured, with the uppercase letters in the correct order and the lowercase letters right next to the uppercase letters running backwards. However, in the episode "Chickenlover" there is a message that reads "DiOsMiOhAnMaTaDoHaKeNnYbAsTaRdOs". That spells “Dios Mio Mataron a Kenny, bastardos,” which is Spanish for “Oh my God they killed Kenny, you bastards", as well as various other episodes. It also does not have a lowercase letter k.

4th Grade Classroom
The 4th Grade classroom first appeared in "4th Grade". It had a darker indigo decor and half-desks, and the alphabet bar above the chalkboard is written in a stylish font which the children can't understand. It had a blackboard which was destroyed in its first episode when Timmy's wheelchair shot out the front of the school (trying to go back in time). It is said to resemble a biology classroom with fish tanks, the gerbil Lemmiwinks and various plants.

Kindergarten Classroom
The kindergarten classroom first appeared in "Trapper Keeper" when Mr. Garrison was demoted to kindergarten teacher because of his gay preferences. It has one round desk with seats. It has brightly colored walls with various pictures (such as animals, rainbows, letters, etc.) and a chalkboard. After Mr. Garrison was appointed 4th grade teacher in "The Death Camp of Tolerance" it wasn't seen until the tenth season episode "Miss Teacher Bangs a Boy". In this episode the classroom appeared exactly the same, the only difference was the teacher, Ms. Stephenson. However, she commits suicide at the end of that episode (in order to spend eternity with Kyle's little brother), and it is unknown who will replace her.

Pre-School Classroom
The Pre-School classroom was shown in the episode "Pre-School". It was burnt down by Trent Boyett after Stan, Kyle, Cartman, and Kenny asked him to light something on fire so they could play "fireman". The fire grew out of control, burning the classroom and disabling the teacher, Ms. Claridge, for life. It had slides, easels and many other things.

Shop Classroom
The Shop classroom was shown in the episode "Tweek vs. Craig". It has wooden desks and various power tools dotted around the room. It is very dangerous and victimized a boy called Tommy who stuck his face in the sander. Kenny had an accident in there and was thrown into a box of rusty old nails.

Home Economics Classroom
The Home Ec. classroom was much like a normal classroom except the desks were in one line. It first appeared in "Tweek vs. Craig". Kenny was the only male student, since he wanted to avoid getting killed in shop class.

4th Grade "B" Classroom
This classroom appeared in "Proper Condom Use" when the boys were sent in a separate room to learn about sex education with Mr. Mackey while the girls stayed in the normal 4th Grade class. It had posters of sex education and a darker decor.

Art Classroom
Ms. Streeble teaches Art class, and teaches it in this classroom. It has a cyan decor with a blackboard and round tables with plastic tablecloths. As one would expect, the classroom is filled with art supplies, such as easels and pottery wheels. Butters is apparently the only kid who enjoys art class.

Audio Visual Department Room
This room is only seen in Quest for Ratings and taught by Mr. Meryl, it has a desk and several posters as soon as you enter and various gadgets scattered about in the background. The studios are probably to the right of the office and and are rather large with many expensive pieces equipment

Student Conference Room 1F
Like the room above this room is only seen in Quest for Ratings and from the outside it has a set of wooden double doors. The interior contains a rectangle table with 6 chairs (2 each side and 1 on the top) and to the bottom of the room it has a brown leather couch with a chair and a TV.

The Gym
First seen in "Conjoined Fetus Lady", the Gym is obviously used for teaching physical education. Chef was the PE teacher until his death (PE classes have not been seen since), and had the kids play dodgeball or play with "the big parachute". When the children took over the town only to part ways in "The Wacky Molestation Adventure", Stan and Kyle's less civilized yet more benevolent tribe made their headquarters here.

The Computer Lab
The computer lab was first seen in "Make Love, Not Warcraft" when the boys were trying to level up their characters. It has turquoise colored walls, with a dark grey floor and white ceiling panels. The classroom layout is 3 sides with desks and computers and 1 side with a whiteboard. The room is at the side of the school as it has a window; the door is brown with a mesh panel to the side. The computer screensaver is the South Park Cows logo on a green background. It was also seen in The Ungroundable. Mr.Mackey was teaching the class as they played the game Call of Duty 5: World at War.

The Library
The Library has featured prominently in three episodes, "Chef Goes Nanners", "Ginger Kids" and "Breast Cancer Show Ever". In the appearances in "Chef Goes 'Nanners" and "Ginger Kids" it had wooden bookcases full of books (naturally) and tables and chairs. In "Ginger Kids" a more open bit of the library was seen which included a wooden speakers stand with 'SP' etched on, chairs, tables with globes and various other bric a bric on it. In "Breast Cancer Show Ever" the room was shown to have a more 'grimmer' decor then in previous episodes with gray walls and a patterned blue carpet. The room was also used as the detention hall in the same episode.

Sixth Grade Classroom
The Sixth Grade Classroom appeared in the episode "Breast Cancer Show Ever" when the students went to watch the fight between Eric Cartman and Wendy Testaburger. It has yellow walls and a blueish greenish floor. The students sit at wooden desks with green chairs. There is a blackboard and above the blackboard is a History Timeline, to the right side of the blackboard is a wooden cupboard with posters on and to the left is various documents on the walls, a globe and a paper tower dispenser.

Basketball Court
The basketball court first made its appearance in a cameo in the episode Mystery of the Urinal Deuce where you only saw a bit of the hall. It wasn't shown again until Elementary School Musical where there was a game versus a rival team. It had wood paneled flooring, bleachers, two basketball hoops, a large scoreboard and was shown with pale green walls. There was also lots of posters and emblems on the walls.

The Canteen
The canteen is featured in many episodes as when the students need to discuss something or contact Chef. It has oblong shaped lunch tables and although it often looks like they can only accommodate 2 in the panning shots they can have up to 8 people on a single table. To collect food you go in one door to collect the food and exit via the other, the kitchen is inside this room. The canteen has several entrances and exits. On the wall opposite the serving counter is a "Hot Lunch Menu" which is an obvious reference to the sexual act "Hot Lunch".

Rehabilitation Room
This room, shown in South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut, is where Mr. Mackey teaches children about the dangers of drugs and swearing. It has blue walls and a pale pink carpet. The furniture includes a piano, two blackboards, sowing machines, a water fountain and lots of chairs. To date this room hasn't made any other cameos.

Detention hall
Disquired. But, in group of episodes, it's usually shown in cafeteria mostly when children are getting into troubles. Still, in Breast Cancer Show Ever, Cartman and Clyde get detention in library. Detention hall is controlled by Mr. Mackey.

Counsellor's office
Mr. Mackey's office has the word "COUNSELOR" on the front of its door. Craig is usually seen sitting in a chair outside it. On the inside, it has a seat in which the pupil would sit. It also has posters up and Mr. Mackey's certificate to be a school counselor.

Principal's office
For the worst behavior, pupils are sent to the principal's office. It has (obviously) the principal's desk, and a chair to the left of it, where Mr. Mackey usually sits. On the wall, there is a poster depicting a monkey and the caption, "Hang in there!" It also has a bookcase. As seen in "Breast Cancer Show Ever" it overlooks the school's parking lot.

Nurse's Office
First seen in Conjoined Fetus Lady this is where the students go when they are injured. It has a hospital bed, medical apparatus, health posters and a desk. When Kyle was sent there, there was a rat and some cheese on the floor possibly showing that the school has hygiene problems.

Janitor's Closet
The Janitor's Closet featured in the episode Breast Cancer Show Ever when Cartman tried to get Wendy to call off the fight. It has cleaning supplies, a mop and bucket and a desk with a chair in it and a noticeboard above the desk. It is assumed this is Mr. Venezuela's room.

Audio Visual Department
The Audio Visual Department is featured in "Quest for Ratings" and is run by Mr. Meryl.

Front of the School
The front of the school has the school's car park, where the staff cars and the buses are parked.

Sports Team
South Park Elementary has its own sports team 'The South Park Cows' whose mascot was a cow. In Douche and Turd PETA banned the use of the cow and the kids either voted for a Douche or a Turd, the Douche would have won with 1410 votes but the PETA members were found murdered at their compound so the vote was canceled and therefore kept as a cow.

Cheerleaders
The cheerleaders for the cows are compromised of Bebe (who may also be the lead cheerleader), Rebecca, a girl called Mandy who has brunette hair and speaks with a lisp, Heidi, Esther and Annie.

The cheerleader uniform is generally white and green which is separated by a diagonal line with the cow logo under the collar on the line it appears they have a yellow T-Shirt underneath. The skirt is also green with white and they wear white trainers.

South Park Elementary Closed Circuit Television
In "Quest for Ratings" it appears that the school has its own private television station and broadcasted Craig's show "Animals Close-Up With a Wide-Angle Lens" and the boys' show "Super School News", it was rebranded as "Sexy Action School News" later on. It's unknown if this is still going on. Though it is speculated that the Sexy Action News Program ended after the students "bailed" on the program.
