When I attended NCHS, back in the misty dawn of time, there were no interior paintings in the building. Now, to my surprise, there are. When I first learned of this, I expressed surprise about it, and in turn my wife, who attended NCHS in years more recently than I, was surprised that I was surprised. Indeed, she insisted that I must have missed them. As it turns out, I did not miss them at all, the murals commenced in 1983, after I had left.
Anyhow, while this is somewhat outside the usual scope of this blog, they are interesting.

Example of hall mural. MKTH photo.
NCHS hall mural which features the logo of the band House of Pain. It must have been the year that the rap tune "Jump" came out that this one was painted.
One done by my brother in law, while he was there.
Another change. Navy recruiters in the hall. I don't recall recruiters coming on campus back when I was there.
