North Wedge Seniors
Project Overview
North Wedge is a highly competitive school for Senior High School students. Thousands of students get referred from several high schools across California. Yet hardly anybody gets in! The school is known for producing the best of the best. The valedictorian is always being boosted to the top of their desired career. Students are divided into career paths based on what they excelled in during their last school. One person from each pathway will advance. Tests will examine their compatibility with graduation every quarter. Any student not at the top will be...Eliminated. The public looks forward to seeing what select students get to walk the stage! Students will focus on showcasing and marketing their abilities, improving, and making sure they aren't the next to discontinue their attendance.
As far as auditions/ casting goes:
For many of the rules, romance, sexualities and ethnicities are specified. This is to help boost minority voice actors. Any ethnicity can audition for a non-specified role. representation is important in characters and their voice actors.

"Good morning new students and now residents of North Wedge Academy! As you all may know, this is a very selective school. that selection will continue the entire time you attend this school. We will host Quarterly tests where the public will decide who they believe is most fit for their pathway. Only a select few of you will graduate. Only one will be valedictorian. I look forward to watching you graduate!"
"I do see talent in you, and so much potential. I believe we may need to look into getting you a fitting for your cap and gown. maybe even a speech" (manipulative / sincere)
"It's a shame so much talent went to someone soo... childish. I don't think you can comprehend what an amazing opportunity this academy truly is. It's selfish of you to take the spot."
