    They have 3 again - Vets, Pilgrim and Tollgate. But now they are just high school, not combined junior/senior.

    For awhile, when Vets was being built, I got bused to Aldrich - can't remember why. It sure didn't take long for Vets to get full enough that they had to build Pilgrim. It was 10 years after Pilgrim that Tollgate opened.

    Did you know the actor Jame Woods graduated from Pilgrim - 1965. And a pitcher for the Red Sox, Dan Wheeler, 1995.

    I didn't know that they were ever combined, since they had Gorton, Lockwood and Aldrich. My older brother graduated from Gorton in 52 when they were still h.s.'s. I know Lockwood was converted to apartments or some such thing some time after the new h.s. opened tho. So now they have jr high schools again???
    Nope - didn't know we had any famous alumni.... Cool!

    The clock of life is wound but once and no man has the power
    To know just when the hands will stop - on what day, or what hour.
    Now is the only time you have, so live it with a will -
    Don't wait until tomorrow - the hands may then be still.
