THE CAFETERIA WAS MOVED

Did you know that the school cafeteria was originally on the sixth floor of M&A? Below is an artist's rendition of the old lunchroom as seen in the June 1952 Yearbook (the artist is Larry Lurin - Class of Spring of 1952). If you look closely, you can see actual faces of the student body. And its hard not to notice all of  the activity.

When the lunchroom was opened to the 250 Music & Art students on February 1936, it was first housed on the sixth floor of the building. According to alumnus Theodore Rosov (Class of 1952), "...it was originally on the sixth floor with beautiful views east, south and north out of the large windows."

​It was not until the spring of 1954 that the brand new cafeteria settled into its new home in the basement of the school.

Always the favorite hangout. Instead of eating our delicious meals and listening for the bell to ring, alumni gather and celebrate the good times.
