‘Sky High’ – California State University, Northridge
In the enjoyable superhero coming-of-age movie Sky High, a high school that trains both heroes and sidekicks is located thousands of feet in the air. Unfortunately, the Oviatt Library at California State University, Northridge, where the exteriors were photographed, does not actually have antigravity characteristics.

‘The Breakfast Club’ – Maine North High School
It’s interesting to note that the major location of this iconic high school movie was a built set. After Maine North High School in Illinois closed in 1981, John Hughes constructed the library set in the school’s gym and used its entryway for the detention dropoff and departure scenes.
The movie’s hallways featured some that were filmed at Hughes’ own school, Glenbrook North High.
