Wow – we attended the Ribbon Cutting of my grandson's new high school tonight.
This campus is enormous –375,000 square feet, 97 classrooms, 18 state of the art science labs all on 97 acres.
Follow along on the tour with me. Let's follow these two random guys.
The cafetorium – I guess that's what it's called.
Look – there are those guys again.
The Java Joint – run by students (I think) who are in the
Culinary arts program.
Let's head over to the Athletic department – one of two gyms
…
The weight room – holy cow. Did your high school have this?
The dance studio!
One of the myriads of labs
The four Academies center around an enclosed courtyard – (the 2nd story glassed in area – student learning lounges spread throughout the campus) .
onto which a few classrooms open! Some of the classes can be moved outside in the courtyard. Note the ergonomic student chairs – they bounce for the ones who learn better while they squirm and wiggle around.
School colors are purple and black – I'm down with purple since my own high school was purple and gold! They are the Raiders. Baaaaaaad!
And here's my #1 Raider…#23 off the line!
Woo hoo – Football season is almost here. This was the first scrimmage Saturday night – 101 degrees at 7:00 P.M.
September can't get here quick enough for me. Adios summer. Hello School Year…And here's to the Class of 2013…first graduating class of CRHS. Enjoy your years at this fabulous school!
