of the 1924 building one last time before demolition begins around the middle
of July to make way for a new building.
From 9:30 until 1:00 p.m., the doors of the old building were open for former students
and teachers and the public to reminisce. Several people who once called Minden High School their home came from out of state to share their memories.
We had some regrets knowing we would never see the 1924 building again. We will
always cherish our memories of growing up and going to school in Minden, Louisiana.
We all agreed that the 1910 and 1924 M.H.S. buildings were much prettier than those
being built today.
