Back to school

A new school year begins for Rensselaer students today (Thursday) and with it a new exhibit of ephemeral art: the paintings of parking lot spots by seniors at RCHS. This is the third year that high school seniors have, for a fee, been able to claim a parking spot and mark it with a design. (For pictures from the last two years, start here.)





This may be the least artistic but also the funniest.




 In other news, construction has begun on new rest stops on I-65 north of the DeMotte exit. Detail are here.

In 1965, we seniors turned out on opening day wearing our painted "Senior Cords" trousers and skirts. It looks like painted senior parking places have replaced them. I still have my senior cords, but they don't fit.

The Senior signs are grand. What a plus to be a Senior here at RCHS.
