The ribbon-cutting for the new additions to Pompano Beach High School was held today. There were plenty of dignitaries from the school and the city in attendance, as well as a sizable group of "Beanpicker" alumni.

Following the speeches and ribbon-cutting (and release of white doves), a reception was held in the new media center. One of the highlights was a display of historic Pompano Beach photographs on one wall. The images were from the Historical Society's collections.

Sharon Rhodes, the media center's director, said she wanted to display the photos to give current students a visual tie to the school's history.
