Title: When you can't recognize your old high school anymore....

..... that's when you know for sure you're getting old.  :smile:

I saw this picture and thought it looked familiar.

It should look familiar as it's my high school's main hall!  :buggedout: :buggedout:

Mine's hardly recognizable either any more.  Last time I drove past it they'd built a fence around it like a minimum security prison and added some big performing arts center lol.

My high school looks pretty much the same as it did when I graduated in 1982.  They may have done some renovations and repairs, but it's basically the same as it was 32 years ago.

Mine's partly torn down ...they've built a new school since then. They sold the old building which was apparently partly stripped away by the new owner. Only the Library and Cafeteria sections are still standing...

Mine is mostly still recognizable, but the old red brick music building has been pulled down, and a modern art monstrosity has been put in its place.  Other buildings have renovations and extensions that seemed similar to putting a modern second story on a California bungalow.
