Fallout 3 Hints
Springvale School Tour
1 of 6: Be sure to come to school with at least one melee weapon and one gun with plenty of ammo. It is a raider hideout, you know.
2 of 6: Go over to the school's big red-and-white sign, then move along the building's south wall until you reach the fenced-in electrical tower behind it.
3 of 6: Go back to the school sign, then turn north and go past the school's front doors and on to the building's NW corner, where you'll make your stand against three outdoor raiders.
4 of 6: After the raiders are defeated, check the two trash bins near the school wall for items, and look on the tires near the motorcycle to find motorcycle gas tank and handbrake items. Then look around in the school's "exposed" area for more stuff.
5 of 6: Go through the exposed area's lowest-level doors to enter the Springvale School Lower Level area. Go through the whole area and kill off all the raiders, remembering to make them come around corners to get you so you can immediately use V.A.T.S. to deal them some up-close damage. Only then should you start looking for supplies.
6 of 6: Go through either door that takes you to the main school area, then run around and clear it of raiders like you did in the lower level. After that, look around thoroughly for supplies on both floors.
