Apparently the original name planned for Samuel Ogle Junior High School was Chapel Forge Junior High School, but the name was changed by the time the school opened. The school is now called Samuel Ogle Middle School.
These photographs were taken by Mary Lynch Giddo in 1966, the year after she and her family moved into their new house at 4025 Chelmont Lane.. The house backed up to the school property, so they had a close-up view of the construction. These photos were graciously provided to Bowie Living by Mary’s daughters.
