IMG was not around like it is now when I was in high school, but its only about an hour away now.
Many of the schools in FL have programs like this though.

That's interesting. IMG is the only school like that I've heard of. I should have went to HS in FL!
 
Kobe Bryant.

A few others, but really, nobody larger than that.

Edit: Checked Wikipedia, turns out there are a bunch. But they forgot Russell Carter, DB for the Jets and Raiders in the 70's and 80's. His younger brother was two or three years ahead of me.

I was watching old Blind Melon videos yesterday at work! Love that band.
 
I don't think anyone is famous from my high school, none come to mind anyway. I'll have to look into it. I know there were a couple pro football players in our conference I played against, but not at my school.

Our kids go to the same high school as Brad Pitt, he's kind of famous. I think there is another Disney actor that went there as recently as a few years ago, but have no idea of the name.
 
Unfortunately no body lol

Ha me either, but there was one girl that was quite famous. But I'm sure her antics were just famous locally.

My high school sucks.
 
Only a few that I am aware of:

Tom Sheehey - Played basketball in Europe and was in the NBA for a little bit
Greg Woodard - Same deal as above.. Professional basketball in Europe and had a short stint in the NBA
Marty Reasoner - Played in the NHL for a few years with the Edmonton Oilers and a couple of other teams.

My Dad went to high school with Bob Lanier
 
I cant really think of anyone. Maybe Matt Anderson, hes on the olympic volleyball team.
 
I graduated high school with Bobby Labonte, Nascar driver, and Jeff Smith, that was on Hee Haw for a few years, was a couple of years older than me. That's all I got.
 
Jack Nicklaus
 
At St. Francis Prep in Brooklyn, NY we had Vince Lombardi, Gerry Dinardo (Big Ten Network), Joe Torre, Frank Serpico, Sonny Dove (NBA) and a few guy that made it into the NFL.
 
I went to high school with Zach Galifianakis. That's pretty much it.

The ACC commissioner went to my high school, as well. But he's a dingus.
