T-shirt, size L, cotton, burgundy, short sleeves, rounded neck, Front- upper left chest printed in white, "EHS 65", Back- printed in white, "I'm From the Old School", "Elgin, IL", illustration of building with words, "Elgin High School, Elgin, IL, Built 1909", "W.R. Mogler, Class of 1945, 8/04" Elgin High School's Class of 1965 was celebrating their 50th reunion in 2015. This T-shirt, in the school's colors of maroon and cream, was given to the alumni. The high school, founded in 1869, continues to serve Bartlett students today who are in the Gifted and Talented Academy. Prior to the opening of the Village's 4 year high school in 1997, Bartlett High School, students traveled to Elgin to complete their education. Before buses, Bartlett students would ride the train to Elgin and then walk to the building. Elgin High School moved to its current location in 1972, hence the reference of the "old school." Today the building illustrated on the back is known as Central School, and is located at 355 E. Chicago Street, Elgin. |
