Manipulating database data with Laravel without using migrations

I have a couple of tables with special names that I imported through a SQL file (this is required, it's for school, all tables must have our initials before the actual table name), I have seen that most of the tables through Laravel are created with a migration, I want to use Eloquent for the CRUD but I don't want to use migrations, what's the approach for it? what should I investigate to make this? I'm a bit confused.

Inside your model you can define the table for that model. for example if you have a table named a_school, in the A_SchoolModel.php you can define the table as below.

protected $table = 'a_school';

Also if the database engine for app is InnoDB, go to config->database and set mysql => [ 'engine' => 'innoDB',]

In laravel migrations need for make your databse easly. If you already make database you can use Eloquent model like this

<?php

namespace App;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class School extends Model
{
    /**
     * The table associated with the model.
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected $table = 'school';
}
