Upper Arlington High School farewell

This spring, the Class of 2021 will be the 64th - and final - class to graduate from the building at 1650 Ridgeview Road. At the end of the 2020-2021 school year, the current Upper Arlington High School will close to make way for the opening of the new school - at 1625 Zollinger Road - in August.
