Exclamation ...Another "dumb" question!!

In the 1st season the girls are coming in and out of doors, is that a real school, or a set? They are outside, Knocking over Mr. Bradly, etc. Anyone know? please advise, thanks!!

I can't be 100% positive, but i would say it is a set.

TOOTIE: Can we sing?
JO: Sing?
TOOTIE: That's what I do when I'm scared. What do you do?
JO: Slap people.

Thanks for the answers guys!! I did not know E.E.'s was a real shop, how did you know? I just love the inside of the school on season one, anyone else?? Thanks again for the replies. Anyone know what the big gray metal thing(in the kitchen) was?? Some kind of drink dispenser?? I could never figure it out.

It was real. It was Poloma College where that segment was filmed. Probably during the summer when most students were not around. The internet would have a lot more information about things now. Though not everything is true on it.
