Alumni tour the old Torrington High School at Raiders Reunion before demolition: ‘Very sentimental’

More than 700 former Torrington High School students took the opportunity to enjoy a final tour of the soon-to-be-demolished structures on Major Besse Drive on Saturday, Jan. 4. That was just 17 days before classes will begin for current students in the new crescent-shaped high school just yards away. Torrington-based O&G Industries led the construction of the new high school building, which is adjacent to the old one. Construction of the new high school building, which abuts the gym, began in 2022. The state of Connecticut will reimburse the city a total of 85% of its $179 million price tag, Longobucco said. Students will begin attending classes in the new building Jan. 21, Sullivan said. Classes in the adjacent new middle school building are slated to begin in September.
