There are four flights of stairs, one at each corner of the building, leading to each of the floors. The number of classrooms is approximately from eighty to eighty-five, and many of these rooms have been subdivided into two on account of crowding. The building was completed in 1913 to house 1,600 students. The enrollment today is 2.600, a thousand over the initial capacity. This necessitates various methods and schemes to do away with overcrowding. The heating plant is situated in a one-story annex in the rear of the Main Building. Besides heating the building, this plant generates electricity for lighting the building and running motors in the machine shop and laundry. The building is fireproof throughout, and equipped with the l est modern educational facilities. It is a school which may hold its own with the finest in the country, and which its city and its students are proud to own. immiiiiiiMWWiiiiBiBiinc.'itiwiiBiiir [16]
