My elementary school was built in the late 80s and had 1X4 surface mount troffers in the hallways and the classrooms. The washrooms were lit with 1X4 louvered fixtures and the gym used rows fluorescents. All of them were F40T12. The library also has some incandescent recessed lights along with the entrances and the lobby. The outside used HPS wallpacks and MV shoeboxes (later changed to HPS floods)
The new wing of that school used T8 2X4 troffers and MH wallpacks.
My high school was built in 1968 and was expanded in the 1970s and in 2000
For the 60s and the 70s part of the building they used 4 lamp 2X4 troffers in the hallways and the cafeteria, while the classrooms got 1X4 troffers in rows. The gym was lit with rows of fluorescents and the stage with HPS highbays (probably originally incandescent). The workshops and the drama room got F40 turret industrials, while the display cases got single lamp industrials. The entrances were lit with high wattage incandescent recessed lights and the parking lot MV shoeboxes.
During the lighting retrofit the 2X4s got replaced with new T8 ones while the 1X4s in the classes were replaced with 2 lamp 2X4s with programmed start ballasts. The HPS highbays were replaced with CFL highbays. The turrets in the workshop and drama rooms was replaced with T8 industrials and surface mount troffers respectively. The display cases were later retrofitted to T8. The lobby had some incandescent recesssed lights and those 70s eyeball lights.
The MV shoeboxes outside was replaced with a combination of pole mounted floods, HPS wallpacks, MV Powerbrackets. I
m not sure when the HPS B2255 in front of the school was added. A second entrance was added to my school which used HPS shoeboxes. Some of the recessed incandescents in the entrances got replaced with MH canopy lights.
The newest part of the building built in 2000 used magnetic rapid start F32T8s, 2X4 troffers in the classes and 1X4s in the hallways and computer lab. These were all retrofitted to IS T8 and the original 3000K lamps changed to 4000K ones. The outisde used MH wallpacks.
