AEROPLANE VIEW OF BRACKENRIDGE BRACKENRIDGE HIGH SCHOOL is located on a beautifully sloping track of thirteen acres on the banks of the San Antonio River. Brackenridge is the largest high school in Texas, accommodating over two thousand pupils and having in its curriculum all courses offered by a progressive high school. Much pioneer work has been done hv Brackenridgc in developing student activities and furnishing wholesome and attractive recreation. It has been through this channel that the school has gained such a hold on the minds and hearts of the students, resulting in our great school spirit that has led us on to victory and success. To promote the social life of the school the clubs and classes this year transformed the barren boy’s cafeteria into the beautiful recreational room shown on the opposite page, spending nearly $2000 in pictures and furnishings. If this great work is continued what may we not expect in the future? Brackenridgc may yet become an art and music center for our city as well as a place where the young men and i women are inspired to accomplish what is best and most worth while in — -8-
