Going, Going, Gone........A Large Part of the History of Parma High School now gone

by Tony DeMarco, '62 PSH Alumni Assoc.

On October 20th, 2010 the demolition of the first Parma High School began. First they began to tear down the most resent addition to the building added when the building was turned into the Parma City School District Board of Education. On Monday the 25th they began to tear down the original building which had stood from It's dedication in October of 1921, almost 89 years to the day. By Thursday, October 28 all that remained was the rubble of a once proud educational building.
