Trenton High Under Construction 1929





Trenton High Under Construction 1929
Good ole Trenton High when it was just being built back
in the day. My Alma Mater with a good science department
1977-1980. This picture was posted by Karl Flesch for a
Trenton Facebook Group and I thank him for its use.
Don't Tear Down Trenton High:)

IT SURE WAS A GREAT IDEA TO BUILD THE GYM SEPARATE FROM THE CLASS ROOMS. THEY WERE ABLE TO HAVE MUCH MORE ROOM TO PARK CARS AND USE THE FACILITY FOR MANY OTHER OCCASSIONS. REGARDS.

I don't ever remember seeing my best friends wife though we went to school together. Finally, on day he remarked that that was because she spent all her time on the second floor of "B" building (old building north towards auto and cosmo), because ... that is where the ACADEMIC classes were. I think they called them the "Liberal Art and Science" group. She was the class brain and I was the clown.

If you look in Bobashela they have me as "Sporting Good Sales" but in reality I put down my career path as driving a Trenton Transit Bus.

Like Ralph said, the gym, down long dark hallways, the place was huge. Getting from Art class over in "C" to Miss Guarino's English (she was a head turner but back then it was not polite to say so), was enough to put you short of breath.

Don't mess with Dave Wiseberg and get caught running. He was head of discipline and I was occasionally in a jam, but he was a great guy.

Hi Ralph & Skip.
When kids misbehaved at Junior 4
they were sent to A11 (Mr Jones)
and if they misbehaved in Trenton
High they were sent to A106 (Mr Sumners) in my Burg day.
Of Course I only know this because
other kids told me about it, I would not be familiar with either of this rooms myself..LOL

See me after school! So I am waiting and they bring a kid in for gambling. Dave Weisberg has a heck of a sense of humor. He pulls out a deck of cards and tells the kid Ace is high, face cards are 10 and the rest are what they are, now cut the deck and see how many days you get detention.

Me, 20 to .. no, I just late because I missed the bus.
