Nope, don't think I've heard of it. Where is that, out of curiousity? Right now I live in the Rochester area. Went to Farmington High School. *shudders*
I haven't heard of any of those people but you! If it means anything, I guarded the Gatorade while Terrell Brandon was leading us to another state championship.
Well Johnmie Morton was in the NFL for a long time Shannon Boxx just won her 2nd Gold medal at the Olympics in soccer Im sure you have at least heard of NIN and Ratt?

He was my Spanish teacher in the mean Commons of Lakeridge. He was easily my favorite teacher ever. After we graduated, a bunch of us that had him went out to dinner at various Mexican restaurants around town speaking only Spanish. Of course, being Jorge, he bought us all margaritas. What a great freaking guy.
It's north of Hangover, NH (my nickname for Hanover because I've never been to Dartmouth and not gotten hammered) in a town called Woodsville.
Cleavland has Phil Knight as an alumni. He almost managed to have our school renamed the Cleavland Knights. No Joke.
Okay, come on. Are you spelling it that way on purpose? Is it a joke that we non-Clevelanders don't get?
Arts and Communication... uhh... artists? They didn't even offer a PE class (outside of modern dance) much less have a team.
Also the Hudson brothers. Former pop icons in the late 60's early 70's. One of them married Goldie Hawn and had Kate Hudson. Also I think Tom Trebelhorn either coached or went to school there.
I never really paid attention to the spelling really and always got them mixed up. That and I suck at spelling things usually. The left button on the mouse pad that brings up spell check for me is a lifesaver. To be perfectly honest I was kind of an outcast in my year because I was one of like six people who grew up in the Franklin district. Cleveland, Cleavland considering I was taught to spell with Hooked on Phonics is it any surprise I mix those two up. I am one of those people that commonly misuses words that sound the same so please call me on it when I do it because I want to get better. Public Education sucks.
I wasn't calling you out, I thought I was missing out on a joke. I have this insane curiosity that when awakened has to be quenched. No worries, my friend.
It's fine. I just wanted to explain myself. I hate spelling errors and especially that one because I always seem to misspell it. The hilarious thing was that before I posted the first time I had it right and then I deleted it and put the less common spelling in.
Right, I must have been a band geek because I don't sit around and rep my high school. Why don't we start up a middle school thread?
