Astoria-Peletina Regional Academy, Ishmira

The Astoria-Peletina Regional Academy, also known as Tower Hamlets Academy, is an elite secondary school located on Dauphine Avenue near Kirkwall Road, near the intersection of where high-rise apartments and suburban neighborhoods in the Tower Hamlets borough of Ishmira meet.

Established in 1957, the school shut down in 2007 under the academy's ambitious modernization plan which was completed in 2010. Because of this, Astoria-Peletina is among the highest-performing secondary schools in Ishmira, whose standing is under threat thanks to the improving performance of other schools in Ishmira itself recently.

When cardfighting became popular in Ishmira, Astoria-Peletina quickly embraced it. The academy has a current ongoing rivalry with Tveria's Veliky Kaluga Academy in city wide cardfight tournaments.

As of 2020, Astoria-Peletina enrolls around 8,700 students, mostly from Tower Hamlets, though other students come from neighboring boroughs as well.
