Doing a Christmas afternoon photo session on the campus of Arcadia High School.
Arcadia is located just east of Pasadena, and 20 miles northeast of Los Angeles; thanks to Arcadia being home to Santa Anita Racetrack, Arcadia's public schools are better funded than in the rest of California, and Arcadia has developed a legendary status among wealthy Asian immigrants (especially those from Taiwan) as a result. Having once lived in Arcadia myself, it's always nice to come back for a new look.
The running tracks on Salter Stadium are outright awesome. Salter Stadium is better than just about any other high school stadium I've ever seen, on par with many college stadia, and good enough for international track meets. Arcadia High School's athletic programs in general are very strong, including the water polo program, which uses the outdoor pools in the distance.
The Apache tribe is Arcadia High School's symbol, and traditionally Apache motifs and imagery were used in caricature, but in recent years, continued use of the Apache motif focuses more on the positive aspects of the tribe, and the school has built a partnership with the real Apache tribe in Arizona.
