A new Patrick Henry.











Of all the many changes I witnessed in my short four day weekend, the one I was most taken aback by was the fact that they had torn down my old High School. Post 9/11 and Post Columbine, Roanoke City decided to do away with the spread out campus style layout and house all the classrooms in one gigantic building instead.

Since Victory Stadium, the main sports arena used by all the city and county schools for sporting events was torn down recently as well, the city funded individual football fields and stadiums for each local area High School.
