Why does your school have a number, and not just a name like "Queens Highschool" or "Oakland-college", something like that?Quote:

cities with numerous schools are numbered...but most just are named after the town like mine. :)
The one here is named after some guy name Chuck Yeager. Ever heard of him?:)
No, he went past too quickly for me to see the tag on his chest ;)Quote:

They got really creative for the high school and named it Desert High School! :rolleyes:
Deserted High School would have been more amusing :cool:
They do have great street names here though....Blackbird Lane (for SR-71), Mercury Blvd, Rocket Site Road, Shuttle Drive....I want to live on Aurora Street myself! :cool:
