In the 2004 – 2005 school year , Hume-Fogg celebrated its sesquicentennial anniversary . In 2010 it was in immediate danger of flooding waters . Being a school that is over 100 years old , it has had roof and leaking issues for several years . The flood waters stopped and receded only a few blocks away from the school , and the rain waters did not cause any notable damage to the school . The graduation ceremony was in question , as the building used for the event , Bridgestone Arena , had a flooded basement , but the graduation was held on schedule
