Knox Academy was a school run by Montgomery Knox. According to Knox, it is a neutral alternative to Magic School, not under the control of The Elders. The academy is a place where young magical beings with gifts can learn to live with or without their powers. The Charmed Ones came across the academy when Phoebe Halliwell had a vision of Knox attempting to recruit Tyler Michaels.
History
The school was visited by The Charmed Ones when they learned about Montgomery attempted to recruit the Firestarter Tyler Michaels. They orbed into his office and he made a sarcastic remark about their option of entering the property. He said that the Academy is a neutral alternative to Magic School, claiming that a school should never have been taken over by demons. He also extended the invitation to their children.
Refuge for Magical Creatures
When a darklighter named Rennek used knowledge stolen from Leo Wyatt to cause magic to switch sides, granting powers to mortals and stripping magical creatures of theirs, the Academy became a refuge center for the depowered magical community.
As mortals realized that magic was here to stay they began to misuse it for personal gain. Some mortals decided to use their newly acquired powers for crimes and created Magic Gangs. In a massive battle between the Gangs and the Magic Squads - government forces made up of people using magic for crime- the school was severely damaged.
Evacuation began, fearing that the Magic Squads would take them into custody, but it stopped once they realized that Darryl Morris was the one leading the Squads.
School Description
The school is a tall building of red bricks with various windows. The building might be built on a Victorian Style. There's grass and somes trees around the building.

The Clock Tower
According to Montgomery Knox, it is possible to see for miles through the windows of the tower. The clock was destroyed by a Fireball when mortals with magical powers attacked the school. ("Reversal of Misfortune") However, the clock was later rebuilt, presumably with the help of magic. ("The Darklight Zone")
