I haven't stepped foot inside this school since I graduated, and I didn't realize how much it meant to me until the shot of the main hall appeared...I instantly got choked up...
@sissyuggy thanks for your thanks. I agree, like Billy Joels song sings,"we didn't start the fire, it was already burnin" And burns more and more every day.
I went to Kensington H.S. from 1969 -1971 and seeing this bring tears to my eyes. Last time I saw the school it was all boarded up and it.broke my heart. We definitely lived in some turbulent times but were they much different than now? Our children have just as much to contend with in our very unstable society today. This is a real blast from the past and I thank you djbobbydeese for putting this together.
Such memories! The compass was installed by John Campagnolo's father. John was class of '63 as was I. Theta Alpha Gamma for me. I think John was Sigma. We are approaching our 50 year reunion. How did that happen?
this is wonderful! it hasn't changed a bit since 1974! including the cafeteria.... that might not be such a good thing :>) love the compass shots. what a great building and oh, the many memories.
Thank you for bringing me back in time for a few minutes. Your video brought both smiles to my face and tears in my eyes. Happy for the memories but sad to see it so empty now.
