"Enjoy your memories of this building."
Some items will be moved to the new school including the murals in the auditorium which were painted by two students in the early 50's, the war memorials by the front office and some entryways.
Denny Kane walked around the classrooms trying to remember what things had changed with Mary Pontius. They both attended the middle school in the 70's. Things were different,"I do remember the boy who leaned out the third floor window on the last day of school. He demanded a better grade and told the teacher he jump if he didn't get it. Pontius pointed to were her old locker was and remembered the kid who threw up on it. Aren't memories grand.
