(The winglets are not to be confused with Winglets, which are short e-books in Wings of Fire.)
Jade Mountain Academy is an intertribal school located within Jade Mountain and was founded by the Dragonets of Destiny after the War of SandWing Succession. The school opened and accepted students from all tribes six months after the end of the war, dividing them into five winglets: the Jade Winglet, the Gold Winglet, the Silver Winglet, the Copper Winglet, and the Quartz Winglet, each of which includes one dragonet from each of the seven dragon tribes. With the exclusion of Peril, groups of two or three dragonets from the same Winglet will share a sleeping cave, making them clawmates.

Founders and Staff
- Clay is the hall monitor, healer, self-defense teacher, herbs and healing teacher, and prey organizer.
- Tsunami is the head of the school/principal.
- Starflight is the librarian.
- Sunny is the main founder of the Academy.
- Webs is the history teacher.
- Fatespeaker is Starflight's assistant and a helper at the Academy.
Rooms and Caves
The Great Hall
The Great Hall is the unofficial entrance of Jade Mountain Academy. Moonwatcher described the cave to have a dimmer light in comparison to that of outside, having enough room to fit four hundred dragons comfortably, with room for more to fly overhead. It was mentioned to have sunlight pouring into the cave, with twisting stalactites that sometimes reached the floor, forming twisting columns. A huge bronze gong hangs against the back wall, with three flying dragons carved into its surface. When the school first opened, a huge banner made of woven green vines reading "Welcome, students!" in giant purple-and-white flowers hung from two stalactites. Two tunnel openings form along the left wall of the cave, with two more on the right wall. Next to each opening, a map is hung, displaying tunnel routes to help students find their way around the huge caves.
The Library
The entrance, as described by Moonwatcher, starts off as a side corridor lined with hanging scrolls. Many of them have quotes on the such as "Knowledge is a flame in the darkness" and "The claws of war are no match for the wings of wisdom." At the end of the hall, a room full of iridescent green sunlight is present (the result of sun shining through large semi-transparent leaves placed over windows, one of those windows was torn open by Icicle who was escaping out of it in Moon Rising). Scrolls are arranged all over the cave, in cubbyholes on the walls, racks, and cylinders around the cave. Every corner had a spot to curl up and read in, sometimes a rock ledge, sometimes a pile of moss, sometimes a bed of reeds and sometimes carpets. Sunlight came down from skylights in the roof and filtered through leaves covering the windows. There's a circular wooden desk labeled 'LIBRARIAN' in the center where Starflight manages the scrolls. Starflight has stamps of every student's name that he stamps on a scroll slot/card. Library stamps are part of the library system in Jade Mountain Academy. Every scroll in the place has a wooden stamp, which, if taken out, it's stamp is stamped on the parchment corresponding to the borrowing student. When returned, their personal library stamps are stamped on the first one to show that it was returned.
| Library Stamps |
|---|
| Library stamps are given to students of Jade Mountain so they can check out scrolls from the Jade Mountain Library by stamping them. Students keep these stamps in a pouch that rests on their chest, which has a strap that goes around their neck. Library stamps/cards are also assumed to be used on Pantala, as libraries seem to be common in the hives. There is a library in Wasp Hive, Jewel Hive, and most likely Cicada Hive, Mantis Hive, and the other Hives. The ones in Pantala are probably different than Jade Mountain's, because Starflight needs to be able to read them, as he is blind.
Library cards have had a few important moments, for example when Darkstalker used Flame’s library stamp to chain him up for trying to kill Stonemover, while Moonwatcher considered them her first treasure, and when Anemone enchanted Qibli 's library card to stop the war between the IceWings and the NightWings. The library stamps are described as a small rectangle of wood, about as long as two claws, and with the student's name carved backward in raised letters on one side. Every student is given one when they visit the library in Jade Mountain Academy. Starflight keeps them behind his desk, and he hands them to students when they visit him for the first time since arrival. They could be used in other libraries in Pantala and Pyrrhia, as they are common, every tribe has at least one in their kingdom on Pyrrhia, and every Hive on Pantala has one. Possibility has one too, as Moon and Qibli visited it during their stay. |
The Prey Center
The Prey Center, which Clay set up, is a large cave open to the sky on one side (with this side covered by a wall of rocks to prevent the prey from escaping) and was often described as chaotic ,due to students and animals running around yelling, shouting and catching prey or eating. It is usually filled with animal prey, as well as a pile of fish, caught by expeditions, and a pile of rainforest fruit for RainWing students. This was one of the main places where Moonwatcher's head hurt the most before Darkstalker taught her how to stop this. This is where Moon met Qibli and Winter after Qibli (or, as Winter called him, "his idiot clawmate") released Winter's pet scavenger, Bandit, that many dragons tried to catch and eat before Moon caught him and gave him back to Winter (after much arguing).
The History Cave
The history cave is where Webs teaches history to the students of the academy. It was described to be covered in maps, with each marked with a different year, and with stacks of scrolls that overflowed the wooden racks provided. This cave was also destroyed by Sora's dragonflame cactus during the events of Moon Rising, forcing history class to be relocated to a different cave.
Stonemover's cave
This cave is where Stonemover is located. Students are welcome to come and go through this cave as they please, but most students find the company too boring. During The Brightest Night, Sunny encountered her father, Stonemover, for the first time. During Talons of Power, Flame was trapped in this cave by Darkstalker for the attempted murder of Stonemover, though, he was released during Darkness of Dragons. The cave is shown to be big enough for Darkstalker to fit inside, but just barely.
The Art Cave
The Art Cave is the room where students learn all sorts of art forms, including painting, pottery, glass-working, metalworking, weaving, and woodworking. The room was filled with art supplies tucked into every crevice, and wooden dragon sculptures placed on little stone shelves.
The Music Cave
The Music Cave was a vast cave filled with various instruments including harps, marimbas, maracas, and drums. The dragonets can enjoy playing music there.
"Weapons Cave"
First mentioned in Darkness of Dragons, the so-called weapons Cave is where weapons were kept if needed to defend the school. The room contains a locked wooden box that holds three daggers (two after the events of Darkness of Dragons), one sword, and one club (or as Qibli describes it, a "big stick").
Healing Center
First introduced in Darkness of Dragons, the Healing Center is where Clay teaches basic medicine and treatment. It contains a colored diagram of a dragon (MudWing) which shows where muscles are located.
Known Classes
History
Taught by Webs, this class is meant to teach in-depth history of Pyrrhia to attending students. The class is structured in units, with the first unit being The Scorching and going chronologically throughout history afterward. The next known unit is 500 years after The Scorching, which is described as a rather chaotic time period.
Herbs and Healing
Suggested by Peregrine and Tamarin sometime between Talons of Power and Darkness of Dragons, this class, taught by Clay, is meant to teach the basics of healing to students. The class is shown to outline dragon anatomy to students as a basis for learning proper technique and presumably teaches some botany, as "herbs" is in the title.
Music
While not an official class, there is a music cave that dragonets visit as a part of their schedule to learn to play different instruments from across Pyrrhia through their own intuition. As of Darkness of Dragons, there is no teacher for this class yet.
Small Group Discussion Class
Though the official name of this class isn't well known, nor is it known if this class even still exists. There are several of them, and they are lead by Tsunami, Clay, Starflight, and Sunny. It is meant as a sort of bonding area for the dragonets within a Winglet to become closer.
Art
There is an art cave in the mountain, though the class does not have a known teacher. There are materials for weaving, sculpture, and painting, among other things. It's mentioned that the teachers could have also made small sculptures in there before school started, and several students (such as Mightyclaws) are sent there by Starflight to calm down and enjoy themselves in creating art of their own.
Trivia
- Jade Mountain Academy is the first known school where dragons of all tribes are taught together.
- The school currently houses all the Dragonets of Destiny apart from Queen Glory.
- Books six through ten focus on Jade Mountain Academy, specifically the Jade Winglet.
- Princess Anemone, Prince Turtle, Ex-Prince Winter, and Princess Icicle are currently the only known royal figures to have been in the Winglets.
- The Copper Winglet is the only winglet that has all of its students.
