Edgewood High School combined with West Covina High School in 1988, mostly for financial reasons. The new West Covina High STUDENTS voted on and chose the colors Maroon and Gold and the Bulldog as mascot. Faculty and some staff moved from Edgewood into positions at the West Covina campus. Trojan Green and Gold and Spartan Blue and White and the Alma Maters of each were "retired" to form a new school, but with the name still West Covina High School. A shock and trauma for many for many years, but today's school spirit and faculty and staff and students continue to be excellent representatives for the city of West Covina. The Edgewood High School campus was converted to a 6th--8th grade middle school in 1988, and remains so, however, now part of the campus is a new high school and is called Edgewood High, but the colors and mascot are different than ours were.

School Story

I have been fortunate to graduate from Edgewood High School with the class of 1965 as a Trojan; to join the faculty of West Covina High School in 1972 as a Spartan; and to continue teaching there until 2013 as a Bulldog. I live in the Pasadena area, but I love to follow WCHS football and visit friends still teaching at either campus. Several faculty members from Edgewood became my colleagues at West Covina, which made it extra special for me. I always felt at home!

Happy Birthday, Debbie! It was nice seeing you at the 60th Reunion all the way from beautiful Pt. Loma. What a fabulous career and busy retired life you have. Best Wishes for another "bountiful" year. (That word seemed fitting for a University Director and Assistant Dean for Medical Education.) Who ever gets a chance to write that for a descriptive adjective? Only English Majors.) Have a great year!

Hi Steve. I'm always curious about my classmates' residencies, maybe just because I like looking at maps. I'm with Rita--is it Tennessee now? You posted some great photos. Happy Birthday and enjoy celebrating in style--whatever yours is!

Georgette! July seems so far away, especially since we've slammed into December already. I miss being in contact with you and the 60th Reunion Committee when it seems like we were texting daily before The Event. Have a wonderful Birthday Month and I hope your New Year is full of many blessings. Love, Peggy

Happy Birthday! So glad cakes are part of the celebration. Got a favorite from Home Ec days you still make? Mrs. Kirkland's varieties are pretty popular around here. Nobody doesn't like hers or Sara Lee's. Enjoy the rewards!
