The School

The School is a location in the Followed series. It is a school in Apex, North Carolina, that TJ and Zach were educated seven years prior to the Apocalypse, in 2007. Ryan "Woods" Wood also mentioned that he worked there.

History
In 2007, Zach and TJ, two eighth-grade students, were waiting for their friends for a meeting. However, they had already left. Suddenly, TJ's timer on his phone rang off. He exclaimed that they were late again (for what it has never been specified) and they run over to the Greenhouse, albeit unknowingly, and encounter the first walker in existence.

In the beginning of the first special, Woods mentions that he worked at the school, either as a teacher or administrator. He also says that roamer zombies attacked the school and he was the only one to make it out alive when the apocalypse started.

In episode 2, Zack and Matt go to the School after running into a food shortage, in hopes of finding leftover school lunches. However, Zack, who doesn't remember going to the school or encountering a walker, faints and sees a "flashback hallucination" after inhaling a large amount of the fumes released into the air after zombies were created in the Greenhouse nearby. He remembers going to the school and finding the Greenhouse, and decides to head there to find food. After killing a group of three bandits, they find a large bin that has a supply of food to last for a few weeks.

Trivia
When Zack and Matt travel to the school, no zombies attack them, which means that the Roamers who attacked have since left the school.
