East Huntington High School
Along PA 981 in the Westmoreland County Village of Alverton was the site of the former East Huntingdon Township High School. Built in 1924, the high school replaced the former high school that dated to the turn of the century. The High School would serve East Huntingdon Township until 1964 when the school district merged with the Scottdale School District to form the Southmoreland School District. The high school was renamed Southmoreland High School and was the district's high school until the late 1970s when a new high school was built across Route 981. The building continued to serve the community as Southmoreland Junior High School until 2010 when a new Southmoreland Middle School opened in Scottdale. The building was later demolished and the site is now the parking lot for the school's football stadium. The intricate terra-cota details of the former high school's façade were one of the many features of this building. All photos taken by post autho...
