Stadium High School

Stadium High School: The main building was constructed by architects Hewitt and Hewitt for the Northern Pacific Railroad Company and the Tacoma Land Company in 1906. It was originally intended to be a luxury hotel. The school was also the filming location and setting for the 1999 movie 10 Things I Hate about You, although the film takes place in Seattle. The original building was under repair through the end of the 2006 school year. Students were temporarily relocated to the old site of Mount Tahoma High School in the south end, just over 7 miles away. The 100 year celebration of Stadium High School was held in September of 2006. Even though Their Football team hasnt faired well for the past decade, a crowd upward of 10,000 people showed up to watch the tigers hold off wilson scoreless untill the 3rd quarter, where interceptions became crutial to the defeat of Stadium.
