Name of school: Monta Vista Highschool
Mascot: a Matador (I know :s)
City and state: Cupertino, California

I do remember they had a very good cafeteria....
 
Graduated from (attended sophomore, junior and senior years):

George School
Mascot: Cougars
Founded: 1893
Newtown, PA
www.georgeschool.org

Can't think of any famous alumni, although it's been in the news recently because an alumna is donating some $128 million over ten years thanks to all the money she made investing in whatever Warren Buffet told her and her family to invest in...

Also attended (started in 3rd grade, stayed through freshman year):

Friends Seminary
Mascot: I have no idea what it is now, but it was the "Big Red" when I was there
Founded: 1786
New York, NY
http://www.friendsseminary.org

Recent famous alumni include the actress Amanda Peet. She was a year ahead of me in school, I went to school with her for about five years. The scary part is that I ran into my 3rd/4th grade teacher on the street about two or three years ago (the hospital I used to work at was across the street...I didn't get very far!), and she remembered me! :shock:
