President Donald Trump went to high school at the New York Military Academy.
He graduated in 1964.
These high-school photos of the future president from Classmates.com are over 50 years old.

Before he was a real-estate mogul, a graduate of the Wharton School of Business at the University of Pennsylvania, or the president of the United States, Donald Trump was an unruly teen whose parents sent him to military school.

Trump's parents sent him to the New York Military Academy when he was 13 because of his acting up.

His father, Fred Trump, hoped "the discipline of the school would channel his energy in a positive manner," according to The Washington Post .

Trump graduated in 1964 and went on to study at the University of Pennsylvania.

That year, Trump was voted the "Ladies Man" of his class in a likely tremendous "popularity poll." We're guessing it was the first of many polls Trump would win.
