Las Vegas High School
as it was yesterday......

Photo of the laying of the "Corner Stone"'
These are scans of photos and graphics we were given by the architects we met with at the 4/29/2002 Senior Squares Project meeting. They are in chronological order, with minimal comment or description, as most of us don't need much. Thanks goes out to George Apfel (aka George Thomas of local radio fame), LVHS class of '71, for scanning them. He even captioned a couple of them while he was a student and part of the "Desert Breeze" staff. Most of the photos came from the collection at UNLV.
