Hollywood High School

Fodor's Review:

Grease is the word! This stellar high school has seen a who's who of Hollywood royalty in its classrooms and many productions shot in its halls. The school's most memorable starring role was in Grease with Sandy and Danny dancing their way across the grassy playground during a true L.A. heat wave. Surely no other high school has such a shining alumni list. Such names as Carol Burnett, Carole Lombard, John Ritter, Lana Turner, and Sarah Jessica Parker called HHS their alma mater. While you cannot enter the school grounds, it's easy to imagine the precelebs struggling over an algebra equation or being asked out to the prom. You can also see the star-studded mural Diversity in Entertainment, by famed local painter Eloy Torrez.
