building no longer exists[edit]

This building no longer exists. It was torn down some years ago. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.95.71.215 (talk) 19:49, 18 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Once again, this building no longer exists. At one time, it was known as "Old Aggie." When torn down, some bricks were saved and sold to raise funds. Some decorative elements of the arch, over the doorway that faced to the west, were saved and incorporated into the new high school building. The old high school building (Old Aggie) was made of red brick. The new high school building is made of blonde brick. I attended middle school in the old building, plus high school French classes (on the third floor) later. Our lunch room (for the new high school) was actually in the gymnasium of the old building for many years. We also had middle school dances in that gymnasium/lunch room/study hall. The gym lockers for the old gymnasium were underneath the stage at one end of the building. On the second floor of the old building, there was a large assembly/study hall. The building's library was also on the second floor, to the west and was accessible through that old assembly/study hall. The library was a very narrow, long room. That was in my 7th grade. By 8th grade, the library had been moved to the new high school -- and the old library became a classroom. Sometimes the teacher in that classroom would open the door and check up on the adjoining study hall. The old building had two large boys and girls restrooms on the first floor and second floor (to the west). There were two smaller restrooms (boys and girls) near the old gymnasium. There were no restrooms on the third floor of the old high school. Yes, I have to admit, when I saw those large, modern restrooms in the new high school building, I was ever so happy. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.197.253.224 (talk) 13:56, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]

@24.197.253.224: Thank you for the information. I've edited the article to reflect the building's razing. Cbl62 (talk) 16:16, 16 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
