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:
“And he smiled a kind of sickly smile, and curled up on the floor, And the subsequent proceedings interested him no more.”
—Francis Bret Harte (1836–1902)
“No one is ahead of his time, it is only that the particular variety of creating his time is the one that his contemporaries who are also creating their own time refuse to accept.... For a very long time everybody refuses and then almost without a pause almost everybody accepts. In the history of the refused in the arts and literature the rapidity of the change is always startling.”
—Gertrude Stein (1874–1946)
