why limit to the 70s or later, weren't a lot of the WPa schools consolidated in the late 60s? Like your own Har-Brack and Tarentum and my own West Deer and East Deer-Frazer?
The kids from Midland were left out in the cold. They had no place to go because the other schools close by (Beaver, South Side Beaver, etc.) did not want to take them in. They were going to merge with East Liverpool, but then the Superintendent of Midland came up with the idea of a Cyber Charter School in order for those kids to finish. That is where PA Cyber School got its roots. Then that idea took off and they expanded into taking in kids from all over the state. Lincoln Park came about over time and that is where a lot of kids from Midland now attend.
Just a few. Turtle Creek. Braddock. North Braddock Scott. Redstone. The aformentioned Har-Brack and Terentum. Frazier. Monaca. Before the mass mergers of the 60s practically every little town had their own high school.
That article would be a treasure to read, especially for someone who went to high school in WPa in the 60s.
Yeah but there were so many consolidated in the 60's based on some state guidelines. I didn't want to get into every HS from way back when.
Yeah. Woodland hills consists of Churchill , Swissvale , Turtle Creek , Braddock , and East Pittsburgh .
Yes then they actually merged earlier with Turtle Creek and became the Turtle Creek Eagles until the big merge .
I also remember the Rankin Tigers too, they slashed up our school bus during one football game back in the day, we never played them again.
are you sure? I remember Tigers, but it was a long time ago. They acted like Tigers the way they slashed the seats and tires on our bus.
You may have but if not read "Striking grid iron"
