Re: Re: Re: Re: Re: Merry Christmas

Hey Larry, What happened to all the guys? If they closed mid year were they able to get back into a public school system and get credit for the school year? Anyone out there who was there when it happened? There are several guys listed in the Roster that show graduated/last attended dates as 73 & 74.

Young was at the reunion in Chicago. He finished in a public school, don't know about the rest.

Talked to Doug Anderson this week - he was faculty and there from 69-73. Said that they were ready to open for the 74 school year and the teachers had already signed contracts when they decided to close about 2 weeks before school started. That's not very good planning - imagine it caused a lot of guys some problems - particulartly those going into their senior year - obviously they didn't have a choice.
