Litchfield High School Twentyefive years ago the people of Litchfield realized their dream when the high school was erected. A gym, four rooms, and a science room constituted the school. No longer would lessons he taught in the Community Hall, the Catholic Church, or the old hakery huilding. Our first school hoard consisted of C. C. Hall, president, IC. R. Morris, memher, and K. B. Mchflickeii, clerk. Mr.l,. 17. Shum- way, who came to Litchfield Park in 1926, was our first superintendent and prin- cipal and served for twentyfone years. The first year the high school was organized, twenty-eight students enrolled. The Class of 1929, which had a memhership of two, was the first one to he graduated -at l,.H.S. This graduation proved to he a sad oc- casion, however, as hoth graduates, lid Parsons and Verna Stephens, were serionsly ill at the time. Verna did not recover, and her diploma was presented to her parents. The school hoard has changed as time went on. Mr. Morris was followed hy Nlr. Sweeney, who in time was replaced hy Dr. Hilton. Mr. Hall was replaced hy Nlr. Reismann giving us our present scho.ml hoard.
