DR. E. E. OBERHOLTZER Superintendent of Houston Public Schools J. 0. WEBB Director of senior high schools IT. L. MILLS Business manager of schools W. I. STEVENSON Principal, Milby High School History of Milby The history of Milby has been one of continual growth and expansion. In March, 1927, about two hundred and fifty students came from what is now known as Harrisburg Elementary School to the new Charles H. Milby Senior High School, 1601 Broadway. The school was named for Charles H. Milby, who was a member of the school board of the Harrisburg Independent School District. Until 1928, the schools in the eaGt end of the city were built and supervised by the Harrisburg Independent School District. J. 0. Webb, now the director of senior high schools, was the superintendent of the Harrisburg School District. W. I. Stevenson, the present principal, was also the principal of Harrisburg High School, and was the first prin- cipal of Milby. Milby has grown from two hundred and fifty students to almost a thousand. The north wing, the swimming pool and the shop have been added, and two temporary rooms were built oh the south campus in 1935. The annex is now under construction. It will have six class rooms, a boys’ gymnasium and an extension to the present lunchroom and kitchen. Thi-s is being built at a cost of $96,167, financed by school bonds and a federal grant. The bonds and grant will afford the school district with $3,821,450 for a building program which includes five new schools and additions to one hundred existing buildings. ■
