Long Beach Poly on NPR

Our high school alma mater, Long Beach Polytechnic, has recently been featured on National Public Radio. It's a great testament to the "Home of Scholars and Champions." We both graduated there in 1994. A couple of quick tidbits:
  • Long Beach Poly has a graduation rate of 90%, the highest among California high schools with 3,000 students and more
  • Long Beach Poly has sent more players to the NFL than any other high school in the nation
Go Jackrabbits!

Very nice find, Paolo! Glad to hear Poly get some good PR nowadays (on the heels of that SI cover and article) as opposed to the days when we roamed the halls. Coincidence? =P

Haha, I don't think it's coincidence at all! Back when we ruled Poly the headlines were Snoop Dogg and the race riots.

So, you got Halo 2 set up in your new digs yet? Cause we're starting to play again (no go this weekend though - Steve and Lyno are at Mammoth).
