Subsequent History
In 1994, after years of poor academic scores, the huge Erasmus Hall High School was divided internally into five smaller high schools, each concentrating on a different academic area. The five schools have separate administrations and faculties, and hold classes in different sections of the large building. However, they use the common lunchroom, gymnasia, library and auditorium at separate times during the day. This division created no changes on the exterior of the building.
Five separate high schools now operate on the Erasmus Hall campus:
- Academy for College Preparation and Career Exploration: A College Board School (K382)
- Academy of Hospitality and Tourism (K408)
- High School for Service & Learning at Erasmus (K539)
- High School for Youth and Community Development at Erasmus (K537)
- Science, Technology and Research Early College High School/Middle School at Erasmus (K543)

Famous quotes containing the words subsequent and/or history:
“Children of the same family, the same blood, with the same first associations and habits, have some means of enjoyment in their power, which no subsequent connections can supply; and it must be by a long and unnatural estrangement, by a divorce which no subsequent connection can justify, if such precious remains of the earliest attachments are ever entirely outlived.”
—Jane Austen (1775–1817)
“There is one great fact, characteristic of this our nineteenth century, a fact which no party dares deny. On the one hand, there have started into life industrial and scientific forces which no epoch of former human history had ever suspected. On the other hand, there exist symptoms of decay, far surpassing the horrors recorded of the latter times of the Roman empire. In our days everything seems pregnant with its contrary.”
—Karl Marx (1818–1883)
