Once a Wildcat, Always a Wildcat

This is where I went to high school, the original Las Vegas High.  It is the oldest high school in the city with the first graduating class being from 1931.  I was in the class of 1993- the last of the legacy!  After we graduated a new high school was opened that took on the name of LVHS and all of its traditions while this school became Las Vegas Academy, a magnet school for International Studies and Performing/Visual Arts.   This weekend is our 20th reunion and I am so bummed that I can't be there!  Tonight they're going to the Homecoming Football Game at the new LVHS, then tomorrow they're touring the old LVHS and having a family picnic, then in the evening they're having a formal dinner & dance.  For all of my friends who are going, PLEASE take lots of pictures for me!!
 
I haven't changed much in 20 years, right?  Ha ha!  I loved high school!  I had wonderful friends, great teachers,...

...and lots of extracurriculars- Cheerleading, Spectrum, Dance Festival, Student Council, Honor Society.  We had good times.  In fact, watch THIS VIDEO by one of our famous alumni to get a taste of what I was doing back then!
 
I have to give a shout out to my handsome hubby too.  It's also his 20th anniversary of high school graduation, but we haven't heard of a reunion or anything.  It's too bad because one of his classmates is quite famous now.  Watch THIS VIDEO to see where Len went to school.
