The library was there when I came, but was fairly new. I think the "Annex"<br />was almost contemporaneous with the original building. There was also the "new gym" which was<br />pretty old even when I was there.Chris Sullivanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05779677734830280397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3595423154503946022.post-46127331820434001682011-02-03T22:54:09.094-05:002011-02-03T22:54:09.094-05:00This makes me even more excited for the Shutze Awa...This makes me even more excited for the Shutze Awards!Kyle Taylorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07186261418792986256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3595423154503946022.post-47887498731250594312011-02-03T09:12:30.297-05:002011-02-03T09:12:30.297-05:00Terry: I forwarded this article to my son who gra...Terry: I forwarded this article to my son who graduated from Atlanta International School in 2007.
