There is something so wonderfully distinct about growing up in the 80s and going to school through the 90s. It was an era caught right on the cusp of change—before screens completely took over our childhoods, when life moved at a slightly slower, more tangible pace. Reading reflections like this feels like flipping through a well-loved photo album, capturing the unique architecture, values, and soul of schools from that decade. It’s a beautiful tribute to a formative time that shaped who we are today.
