If These Halls Could Talk
The Story of Michipicoten High School 1954-2004
Well here it is! “If These
Halls Could Talk – The Story of Michipicoten High School 1954-2004”. Exactly 3
years after the memorable MHS 50th
Reunion weekend in 2004!
The
seed for this amazing project was first planted by the MHS 50th
Reunion Organizing Committee 18 months prior to
the actual event. Anticipating the afterglow of the 50th
Reunion, we realized we would have to document
the memories and experiences that so many people would share during the reunion.
Throughout the memorable
weekend, we were all aware that it did not seem to matter what decade or era you
experienced, there was a tangible connection between us all. Our high school
experiences and memories may all be varied and different, but they all occurred
within the same walls and echoed through the same halls of MHS.
The
original purpose of this book was to record the unique history of how our small
town high school evolved. It became apparent that this history would have to
include the dynamics of the many different faces and experiences of all of us
who attended MHS. For 50 years MHS has provided a venue for teachers and
students to learn and grow in this unique corner of
Northern Ontario.
This
book is a tribute to the many teachers who inspired us, to the lasting
friendships we made, and to the life experiences that would help mould our
futures. If These Halls Could Talk
was created to simply say “Thank You” to an inspiring little high school, and to
preserve the history and past memories of MHS for future generations of MHS
students.
