West Anchorage High School

What can you say about home, it is always fun to return for a vist.

I was there for a band/orchestra event with my kids. It has changed in a lot of ways (especially the front foyer area by the stairs!) but I saw a lot of places that I remembered and that were pretty much the same!

I went to High School here. I lived across the street and down the bike path by the lagoon. I remember jogging, cross country skiing and walking with good friends along this path.

West High has a phenomenal auditorium. I spent many an hour there after school. I am still in the theatre world and realizing how fortunate we were to have all that it had. Dressing rooms, a “Green Room”, a balcony, lowering pit,… We took it so for granted. When I left, I thought all schools and theatres would be like West High’s, boy was I mistaken.

Good entries Dan & trelnar but I’m surprised you didn’t mention anything about the photo/yearbook room. I think we all got our first exposure to Macintosh computers there thanks to Davlin getting them for yearbook.

Also, who can forget that Davlin’s were the most easily forged hall passes in the school?

Hope to see both of you Aug. 4

If you like solitude and very flat surfaces. I am a graduate of West High!

Hey, Dan!
