Corleone, Tattaglia, Clemenza


Schools of hard knocks? Why these 3 names?
I always found it interesting that these names appeared as schools. Is there a specific reference?

Corleone was the family name of the main characters from The Godfather novel and films. Not sure about the other two.

I'm very familiar with the characters. Philip Tattaglia was the Don of another of NY's 5 families and Pete Clemenza was Vito Corleones right hand man. I just found a 4th name mentioned, Barzini high school. Emilio Barzini was another Don. My question is what is the correlation between the Godfather (characters) and EHC and why named as schools?

Oh. I guess I misunderstood the question. For that, I don't know.
