The high school where I'd worked had only 3 buildings plus the gymnasium, a baseball, & a football field when I first started working there. While there, 2 buildings were added. I was amazed to see how the campus had grown over the interim! Several new buildings plus portables, a swimming pool, 2 add'l baseball fields, half a dozen tennis courts. The campus is now more than twice the size it was when we left.
