Stephen Fredman graduated from Point Loma High School in a large class of 900 students in 1966. I was there – that was my class too.
Like many alums, Stephen left this “waspish, uncool Navy town” and he ended up teaching modern American poetry and poetics at the University of Notre Dame for 37 years. He’s written a book of poetry, translated several works from Spanish, and authored five books of literary history and criticism. Now the local boy has published his latest work, Pass Through, and partially at least, it’s about growing Jewish in Point Loma.

Oh, what a world.
A world, that, too often,
seems like a nightmarish dream.
Makes me want to scream.
But there came a moment
when I turned my television on
and there, before me, stood Nanci Griffith
|singing “From a Distance,”
forever one of my favorite songs.

Today we focus on changes to the athletics areas and hear Principal Kelly Lowry’s vision for the future.
It may be surprising to learn that PLHS has the smallest high school acreage footprint in the District. Diligent planning maximizes use of the space for both academics and athletics.
