Accuracy of History section disputed

The following text in the History section was flagged by User:Geniegirl as being in error:

"In the 1990's the school underwent extensive renovations and only a few of the original structures still stand. From the 1950s to the 1990s, the school was referred to as Traverse City Senior High. In 1997, a second high school opened in Traverse City, Traverse City West Senior High, and the original school was renamed "Central High". Since West Senior High opened, there has been a westward shift of students; in the 2004–2005 school year, there was an enrollment gap of 178 students, though that number is increasing at a slower rate than in the past."

This should be easy to verify - download the enrollment figures from MHSAA's website. One interesting tidbit about the westward shift: when West opened in '97, the district gave the current students living in the enrollment area of West the option of transferring to the new school. All but a handful of starters on the football team lived on the west side of town, and almost all those eligible transferred. Central was left with the scraps, and northern Michigan Class A football ceased to be Traverse City and the five dwarfs.SpanishCastleMagic (talk) 13:38, 15 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
