Academy

The Ninja Academy is the training center for Academy Ninja before they become Genin. Known teachers at the academy include Iruka Umino and formerly Mizuki. Classrooms in the academy are large and have high-ceilings, based on a theory that larger classrooms lead to expansive education, expanding even into the blackboard itself. In front of the blackboard is a podium situated far from the students' desks and put in a position where the teacher can view everyone at once. The large windows in the classrooms can be used as exits in case of emergency. The Academy roof, which is directly below Hokage Rock, is often a lecture center, particularly on the village's history.
