Filming of the school


Does anyone know what school they used to film Carrie in?
Or maybe two separate schools for some reason?

Whenever I watch the prom scene, I swear the gym looks like the one from my school.

reply

All high school gyms look alike.

The gym was actually burned down in real life. It was a school that had closed here. The name of the school was West Whalley Secondary in Surrey BC.

Ummmmm no. While you have the right sort-of right (it was West Whalley Junior Secondary), the school was demolished in August 2002. There's no mention of it burning in Surrey's school history, and the burn-down in the film was clearly CGI. If I'm wrong, please cite.
