TORONTO HIGH SCHOOL ALUMNI ASSOCIATION WINTER 2012

TORONTO HIGH SCHOOL PROGRESS It is always good when you are able to see visible

progress on any project and we have been treated to

watching the new Toronto School being built this sum-

mer. What looked like three separate buildings being

built has come together as one and will be under roof

by December 1st, according to Superintendent Fred

Burns ‘67.

The building will open in August 2013 for the

school year and will house grades seventh through

twelfth. Mr. Burns remarked that the Toronto Board of

Education worked with the architect in the planning

and design of the new building to maximize the most

school space for the money. This will allow for any

future addition without having to duplicate many of the special instruction areas. It has two art classrooms, one with a

kiln and there is more office space than needed (to be used as extra classrooms now), but if the need arises for an elemen-

tary school addition this space would be in place and that would reduce cost to the school district and taxpayers. The caf-

eteria and auditorium are combined and called a“Cafeterium” or “Auditoria”. The area can easily seat 600 people with a

raised floor and stage area, or be used daily as a cafeteria. The combination satisfies requirements for state funding.

“The Toronto School District is guaranteed that if it would need to build an addition (elementary school wing) at any

time in the future, we would receive 61% state funding, no matter how many years might lapse with no need,” said Burns.

He added, “It is like having a savings coupon with no expiration date”.

Being good stewards, the school board is working with the best interest of the community in mind. Coming in under

budget with a quality new building for our children is their goal. “They (board of education) have been able to save on

demolition costs on the old building due to an asbestos evaluation which showed less asbestos in the building than was

originally thought. They also saved over half a million dollars by voting to demolish the SC Dennis building in the sum-

mer of 2011 and ‘keeping Toronto dirt in Toronto’ just by moving the dirt to the new site location”, according to Burns.

He went on to say, “We are going to make things right for the students of Toronto and the board is adamant in keeping its

promise to the citizens regarding working within the budget for the new school. Don’t judge us by things that may go

wrong, but by how we correct them and don’t repeat our mistakes”.

The mosaics over the doors (granite slabs

with Toronto High School) of the current

building, are going to be removed in one piece

and converted into park benches to be placed

in the south end school campus. All of the

class pictures will be removed, cleaned, re-

paired and then positioned over the hall lockers

in the new school.

Many have asked what will happen to the

auditorium seats or the windows. I have heard

others talk about a favorite locker or room

nameplates. Everyone will get a chance to

own an item. An auction of all items that are

not being moved to the new school and

had to go into the service in 1949

because of family problems. I served

during the Korean War. When I was

discharged, I rejoined my family,

who had relocated to Detroit, Michi-

gan. I began my career with Scott

Paper Company working from mill-

right to production supervisor before

taking a position with the company

in Mobile, Alabama, as a mainte-

nance coordinator. I retired after

thirty-three years service with Scott

Paper as their Central Maintenance

Superintendent. While in Alabama, I

attended the University of South

Alabama and have taught basic com-

puter to senior citizens at a local

senior center in Columbia.” Bob

now lives in Columbia, TN.

band performing before a stadium full of

Red Knight fans, alumni and students; add

new bleachers, a new press box, conces-

sion stand, ticket booth, heated restrooms

and it’s a blue ribbon recipe for football

fever in the Ohio Valley. There is still

more to do as funds become available, but

new lighting bases were installed and

wired just waiting for the money to com-

plete them.

A new scoreboard was donated by Jim

Metcalf ‘76 and his sister Karen (Keimie)

Metcalf ‘67 in memory of their father and

mother, James and Betty Weltner Metcalf,

class of 1939. A big “Thank You” goes

to David Hindman (World Radio), who

donated time and materials to upgrade the

speaker system and to Mayor John Geddis ‘66, who allocated extra man power from the city workers to get the

scoreboard set, wired and installed in time for the first football game.

The Alumni Association purchased a

PAVER BRICK PROJECT

The Paver Brick Project is an on-going project to raise money for the new lights and

whatever else is needed to complete the upgrades to the stadium. These pavers “in hon-

or of” or “memory of” would make a great gift and a gift card acknowledging the pur-

chase will be included for your use. Bricks are $60 each or two bricks for $100. Please

complete a separate form for each brick ordered. Make checks payable to the Toronto

City School District.

The pavers are installed in designated spaces. ALUMNI and CLASSES, don’t be

left behind, order a paver with your class year. Superintendent, Fred Burns ‘67

challenges any class that buys a paver, he will match and dedicate a paver in honor

of THS Alumni. Example: A class purchases two pavers then Fred will also pur-

chase two pavers in honor of “THS Alumni”.
