Trenton High Forever



Trenton High Forever:)
This blog highly objects to tearing down Trenton High.
I know someone posted that the cost of fixing the ole
place is big due to old plumbing, electric etc..
But I won't be reasoned with. Trenton High Forever !!

I agree, Mack. It would be a travesty if they tore that grand old building down. Plumbing can be re-placed throughout. No one can tell me they can't strip that building down to the bare brick walls and rebuild from the INSIDE a heck of a lot cheaper than 1) demolishing 2) removing the demolished debris 3)starting all over again with a new building!

That school is one of the few buildings remaining in Trenton that represents the glory of the city and especially the Chambersburg area. I attended in 1935,36 and 37 and it still looks as good as new.

Hi Tom & Ralph:)
An Amen to both your posts.

Although I never attended TCHS, I could see the school, across the football field, from my bedroom window on South Cook Ave. I used to catch the bus to high school in Princeton at the corner of Hamilton and Chambers. I have boasted on this building many times over the years...hopefully there are some true appreciators of history in positions of authority.
