Senior Court
Senior Court is a courtyard behind the administration building dedicated to the Senior Class back in the 1940s. The idea for the court was suggested by 1944-45 student body president Pete F Manghera. The Senior Court area was built to have a designated area for the seniors to hang out at when not in class. Senior Court is about 100 ft by 70 ft long. The courtyard is home to the "Senior Benches" which are standard school benches painted black and gold. Leadership paints club names, the class motto, and the class year on these benches, etc. It is also home to the Richard Anderson Memorial Bench. Senior Court nonetheless is the second largest hang out area on campus to the flag pole. The flag pole area is east of Senior Court.

—Laurence Steinberg (20th century)
