Alex Van Helsing: Vampire Rising 
by Jason HendersonThe Van Helsing name rebornFourteen-year-old Alex has no idea that he's descended from the world's most famous vampire hunter, but that changes fast when he arrives at Glenarvon Academy and confronts two vampires in his first three days. Turns out Glenarvon isn't the only school near Lake Geneva. Hidden deep underground lies an ancient university for vampires called the Scholomance. And the deadly vampire clan lord known as Icemaker? You might say he's a visiting professor.
When two of Alex's friends are kidnapped by Icemaker, it's up to Alex to infiltrate the Scholomance and get them back—alive. Assisted by the Polidorium, a top-secret vampire-hunting organization with buried ties to the Van Helsings, Alex dodges zombies, bullets, and lots—and lots—of fangs on his way to thwarting Icemaker's plans and fulfilling his family destiny.

I don't think I've ever heard of this book before but it sounds really good. I'm defiantly putting it on my wishlist, great pick!
This sounds pretty cool, original considering all the "vampire school" novels out there. thanks for letting up know about it.
also, thanks for letting me know how to change the size of the video on my Waiting on a Wednesday page, I had no idea how to fix that, and you were very helpful. So thanks!
I just posted my review of this one - I loved it! Great choice :)
