Bruce Lee

edit

According to the wikipedia article on Bruce Lee, he was born in San Francisco and grew up in Hong Kong. So how is he a former student at Hollywood High School? Nightkey (talk) 18:22, 16 January 2008 (UTC)Reply

Scott Baio

edit

The wikipedia article on Scott Baio states he went to North Hollywood High School which is a different school than Hollywood High School (about 10 miles away in the Valley). I am removing Scott from the 'famous alumni' list based on this. L. Greg (talk) 16:52, 3 March 2008 (UTC)Reply

Lawrence Fishburne never attended HHS, he graduated from a high school in NYC. 71.245.115.13 (talk) 13:15, 19 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

A brief mention in this reliable source indicates that Fishburne did indeed attend the school, but no details are offered. This article has more details, but I'm not sure whether it's reliable. The sourcing of the entire section leaves something to be desired, and I have added a "citation needed" tag to the sentence mentioning Fishburne. If no better source is found, I'd think we could use of the above two sources or simply remove the sentence. Rivertorch (talk) 19:49, 19 August 2013 (UTC)Reply

Larry did indeed attend HHS in 1977-1978 prior to his being cast in Apocalypse Now. He did not graduate but is considered an alum. He wpuld hang out mostly with the drama/theater students. Rodneyrobin (talk) 09:11, 3 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Concert Venue

edit

Should there be a section discussing Hollywood High School as a concert venue? Elvis Costello and Morrissey have held concerts in the auditorium. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.193.255.46 (talk) 08:23, 4 February 2014 (UTC)Reply

Looks like a advertisement

edit

The section Present Day Learning Academies in this article looks like an advertisement, not an encyclopedic article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.128.181.199 (talk) 16:40, 2 December 2016 (UTC)Reply
