Derrick Rose, who led his hometown Bulls to the playoffs and restored hope to a franchise in disarray, is the NBA's rookie of the year.
The Memphis Area is proud of Derrick Rose! We only had him for a year, but it was a great year that he spent here! We pray that he will turn into one of the NBA's All Time Greats!

These were the initial graduating classes under the new optional program which was launched by the Memphis City Schools in the late seventies!
Central High School boasted some of the best academic, and all around students that the Memphis City School System had to offer at that time! Many of these graduates will be the future leaders of Memphis,Tennessee and beyond!
