Where is it Wednesday...somewhere in Tualatin, Oregon

Each week I'll be posting a new picture on Wednesday morning. The title of the blog will have the City where the picture is taken and I'll post the answer Wednesday evening...not only here on my blog, but on my facebook business page as well. Feel free to go to my facebook business page to add yourself there and comment.

Do you know where it is? Care to guess? Comments are welcome. I'll post the answer tonight.

Hint: Red & Black...books a'stack, leaving here you will often look back

Answer: As many guessed, it is indeed a high school..Tualatin High School.

Moving several times across the country often having my two sons have to start all over in a new school and making new friends, we vowed that when we moved to Tualatin in 2000 that we would do whatever it took to have them both go through the same high school. We found this school to be excellent, with fantastic new freshmen orientation given by upper classman students. I watched both of my sons from the stands of the football field where the graduation ceremonies were both held with teary eyes knowing that this was just the beginning of there venture into the world of college and work.

So the brick picture is of the all the "Wolf bricks" for which the money donated goes to Grad Night..a place that the Grads are taken to..unkown to them full of entertainment and fun and is an overnight event. I volunteered one year..my slot was 1-3AM. I thought I would be exhausted, but watching the excitement of the Grads kept me up.

Tualatin High School started as a small school house in 1865 that eventually became Tualatin Elementary (this was just torn down this year) With all the growth of Tualatin, the new school was build in 1992, with the addition of the it auditorium and swim center in 1998 and then the newer T.E.C.H (Tualatin Engineering, Computers and Health) wing in 2006.  School colors are black and red and are known as the Timberwolves.

I have to say I wouldn't have remembered it was Wednesday without seeing your post.

Some sort of a high school graduation wall?

Cindy ~ I'll have to guess myself because Frank isn't here ~ Looks like a memorial of some sort, high school?

Cindy, great pictures. Since I live far away from you, I have no clue where the places you mention are, but I still enjoy the mystery. Have a wonderful day.

Hi Jill, I know, I woke this morning thinking oh..it's Wednesday! Keeps me on my toes and gets me out and about looking at things with a different eye. I guess this one was easy with the "class of" on the bricks. You guessed right :)

Hi Karen, it is indeed a high school. The bricks are done through donations for the school so you can get your childs name on one at the end of the school year.

Cindy, what a wonderful write-up about the history of Tualatin High School! Love your "Where is it Wednesdays" even though I don't stand a chance of guessing anything since I'm not familiar with the Portland area. :)
