Shop Room tool area291 viewsSince the high school left 20 years ago, the shop room was largely converted into a high-tech distance learning facility (which for some reason I didn't take a picture of). But parts of the 'old' shop room still exist, like this tool storage area, which, although much messier than our old shop instructor Mr. Wiebenga would have kept it, is about the same as I remember it.

Another upstairs classroom284 viewsTim had lots of classes in here: numerous english/lit classes, government, sociology... It was also directly above the boiler room and right next to the dumpsters outside, so you'd end up with interesting noises as the boiler did it's thing in the winter and the garbage trucks backed up the alley beeping away when the windows were open...

Plumbing281 viewsNot sure why Tim took this, but it shows the 'secret' area behind the boys toilets where the plumbing could be accessed.

The Gym278 viewsAnd one last view of the gym, showing people hanging out visiting the building, perhaps for the last time.

Old Building274 viewsThe "Old Building", which was the majority of the school. When this was built, this would have been the main entrance.
