Trivia

• The doors on the front entrance of Elmore Junior High match the colors of the main Watterson children; Anais, Gumball, and Darwin.
• The school's mascot is a duck.
• Strangely, although Darwin is only 10 years old, he is still a 7th grader like Gumball. This may have something to do with how he is registered as a "pet fish" instead of a student.
• In MiXiT Video Creator, the background of the show has a preview of Elmore Preschool.
• Anais attends this school because of her high intelligence, despite being only four years old. She is not in Miss Simian's class with her brothers, instead, she goes to a junior kindergarten class.
• The live action shot of the school's exterior is from Abraham Lincoln High School in San Francisco. Interestingly enough, a lot of the more Victorian houses, like the one in front of the bus stop in "The Gi" look like Vallejo houses, similar to those of San Francisco.
• The live action photo location used for the school basketball court is from Lincoln Elementary in the photos down below.
• On Miss Simian's door, there is a three-eyed smiley face. This is a reference to the 2001 film, Evolution. In "The Genius," Gumball's Brain destroys a picture of Charles Darwin. There seem to be a lot of references to the film in the show.
• The school seems to be old, as Richard, Nicole and many other adult characters attended it during their childhoods.
