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:
“... the outcome of the Clarence Thomas hearings and his subsequent appointment to the Supreme Court shows how misguided, narrow notions of racial solidarity that suppress dissent and critique can lead black folks to support individuals who will not protect their rights.”
—bell hooks (b. c. 1955)
“The history of all Magazines shows plainly that those which have attained celebrity were indebted for it to articles similar in natureto Berenice—although, I grant you, far superior in style and execution. I say similar in nature. You ask me in what does this nature consist? In the ludicrous heightened into the grotesque: the fearful coloured into the horrible: the witty exaggerated into the burlesque: the singular wrought out into the strange and mystical.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)
