Synopsis

In this book, we revisit the teachers, students and their families who helped shape the landscape of Calvin Coolidge High School in Washington D.C., from 1941 through 1970. It was and still is a school grounded in history and chronicles the ups and downs of living in the nation’s capital. The story unfurls over decades of war and peace, civil rights, voting rights, the end of segregation, and the assassinations of public figures, including a president. After the school was renovated in 1991, Edward Waters (class of 1943) and William Glew (class of 1945), took us on a virtual tour of Coolidge that ended in a garden behind the school, where a plaque is mounted on the Greenhouse building in memory of ten Coolidge boys who died during World War 11.
