the turn of the century, the first school sponsored activities began. Students were involved in a new era as football, baseball, track, drama, and other subjects were introduced into the curriculum. By the early 1900’s it was evident that a larger school was needed to house the ever growing number of AHS students. With the help of Alameda High School’s student body, a school bond election was held, ending with spirited students celebrating the victory with a bonfire that evening. In 1902 and 1903 the new Alameda High School, presently the language building, was built and dedicated. At that time, the total enrollment reached over 200 students. Steadily increasing in size, Alameda High School’s student body in 1904 had grown to 372 students with 12 teachers. Dr. A.W. Scott, principal for 11 years, retired in 1904, having presented diplomas to all but 80 of the 550 AHS graduates up to that time. Principal Scott’s replacement in 1904 was Dr. George Thompson.
