I , .,,....-....V In May of 1987, the Columbus Ledger-Enquirer conducted a survey of Columbusites and asked them the question, What school do you consider to be the school in Columbus? The results they received were no surprise to Columbus High students and Opening Faculty - they simply mirrored what vve have known all along. An overwhelming seventy-eight percent of those surveyed said that they consider Columbus High to be the school of Columbus, the school of our time, the school of the year for this year and every year. By 1888, it became evident that Columbus needed a high school and to fulfill that need, Columbus High School was created. The school opened in 1889 using three buildings on Eleventh Street. In June 1892, Columbus High held its first commencement at the Springer Opera House with 18 graduates.
