Columbine High School
The Class of 1999 was to be the first class to attend the bigger, better high school. Columbine High School, named after Colorado's state flower, underwent a $15 million dollar makeover in 1995 and an opening ceremony in August of that year welcomed Eric Harris, Dylan Klebold and all the other students of the school to a brand new cafeteria, student entrance and halls. It was the first facelift the school had done to it since the 70's and in just four years the school would need another renovation due to the damages inflicted on April 20, 1999.

Banner that once headed Columbine's school homepage. This image looks to be the inspiration for an image Eric Harris made for his own webpage, seen here. The Columbine banner is no longer hosted at Columbine High School's present-day site.
