Fen (and most of their factions) can be stereotypically said to appreciate the value of a good education. The Wizarding World's source stories are set in a school, as are many of the stories that underpin the Crystal Millennium's fandom. The Heinlein Society, the Nivenites, the Pournelle Fen and the Asimov Fen all base their respective fandoms on the works of highly-educated writers. And Buckaroo has often been heard to explain to potential dropouts the advantages of staying in school.
Thus, it is no surprise that Fenspace would have its share - or possibly more than its share - of schools.
