Local parish school in Philly. Classes “taught” by nuns (Sisters of St Joseph) who had no training in education. Class sizes of 50+ with one nun and no assistant. “Textbooks” that were 15-20 years out of date. Discipline was far more important than content. Survived.

I bet that at least your nuns had English as a First Language!

Regards,

The first one, the first grades in school are in Brentwood. Right on Sunset. Very small classes ... there were about 15 kids in mine that would graduate per year.

From there I went to Marymount High School. Classes were a little larger. Just 40 to 50 people would graduate each year. It’s on Sunset. Spanish Colonial, very pretty inside. A small white marble chapel inside ... the Christ statue outside as you go around the curve.

Very nice school ... very well known classmates. If I named them, I would be shocked if you did not immediately know of them. I was blessed that my family was willing to send me. It elicits comments if people see it on my resume.

Did you grow up in LA too?

I’m not sure.....I don’t recall to be honest

We had friends in Laurel and would go to a swimming lake that had a beach and a pier and several high dives and most importantly a tower dive that went up to over 100 foot for exhibitions pro divers

I went up to 72 foot with my tennis shoes on and about killed myself ..hurt bad

I did the strong river a lot....went to camp Mondamin as a kid and canoed the river later as an adult

Did the homochitto and the tickfaw too

We had a lake cabin at lake Bruin Louisiana and I spent most summers there.....the best

With my cousins...

Actually class of 71. The car was put in the locker room, not the restroom. I did not participate. But I know the perpetrators, and enjoyed seeing it. April Fools Day 1967. I was there

I do not understand these threads that ask questions
that are also security questions on different places
for your password.

I must be overly paranoid.

We had the san teachers.

By my time, picking up the red ( fiat ? ) was a ritual. It was carried to the grass football field one night

Did Radclff have that Morris Minor Station Wagon with the wood veneer sides ?

You guys are the ones who drove VWs down the corridors on weekends - correct ?

Le Conte Elementary, Berkeley CA. Started Kindergarten there in 1955.

Once a nice school in a nice town, now a Leftist s***hole with mostly non-English speaking students. The school is going to change its name I hear because Le Conte was a “racist.”

By that logic, Berkeley should change its name because George Berkeley, its namesake, was a slave owner.

K-6th grade, late '50s and early 60's.

We used to pledge allegiance to the US flag every day, and even acknowledged God while doing it.

We were living pretty dangerously. /s
