Secretary Dr. C. S. Caldwell L. H. Rogers Mrs. Rose B. Oskin G. L. Pyle C. C. Kelso, Superintendent Swissvale High School 1903-1930 In September, 1903, the first session of the High School was conducted in the Denniston building, with twelve pupils enrolled and one teacher in charge. In 1904 the school was moved to the 1VlcKelvy building and later' to the Haw- kins building, where it remained until 1909 when it was again transferred, this time to the Wilkins building. In 1921 the present building was occupied. The iirst courses otfered were strictly classical and three years in length. In 1909 commercial and technical courses were added, but it was not until 1918 that all courses were made four years in length, In the twenty-seven years of its history the student body has grown from twelve to six hundred ninety, and the teaching force from one to thirty. The school graduated its first class, a class of ten girls, in 1906. In fact, the first two graduating classes were all girls, and girls made up the major part of the student body. Even as late as 1914, the writer's tirst year in the school, there were barely enough boys for a football squad, and in one of the years immediately preceding this date a boy with an artificial leg was pressed into service in order to complete the team. In recent years the student body has been about equally divided between boys and girls. Up to the present, the school has graduated six hundred forty-six pupils. Its alumni are to be found in almost every profession, business, and industry. The real worth of Swissvale High School, however, will be measured in terms of the quality of citizenship displayed by those who have come under its influence. QQKEZJ U41 N l f N.
