HISTORY OF EAST HIGH Eighteen ninety-eight: Conditions in the Rochester schools were so dis- graceful, so poor, that the boys and girls studying in the schools protested, the adult citizens agitated, and Governor Theodore Roosevelt threatened to withhold the State monies if something were not done about the situation quickly. The inadequacy had developed because of an antiquated system of arrangement of the Board of Education. Each ward had one representative on the Board, supposed to see to it that his ward was taken care of properly in matters educational. This kept the board from having an integratgd view of the city's needs, and fostered rivalry and incompetence. The Rochester High School building was especially bad. Agitation for a new high school building was being carried on by almost all citizens, sup- ported by the local newspapers. The school paper, the Clarion, published by the pupils of the Rochester High School, published an editorial describing their school building on South Fitzhugh Street in these terms: The faults of the school are so obvious that anyone enjoying the use of his eyesight can see at a glance what an antiquated, badly planned, poorly lighted, illy ventilated, tottering unsanitary monstrosity this building is. There was no gymnasium, lunchroom, or assembly hall. The staircases were perpendicular, poorly lighted, dangerous. In fact, there was an elevator in use for those delicate girls who were unable to climb the stairs. In general, everyone was agreed upon the need for a new school. Determined to accomplish the renovation of the school system, Dr. Andrew J. Townson, president of the Board of Education, initiated a new form of Board. Five representatives were elected from the city at large, eliminating the old narrowness of view. The new board was more efficient and cooperative. After a great deal of discussion, it was decided to build two new high schools. This extravangance was roundly denounced by those citizens who could not see the need, then or in the future, of more than one high school. Since East High was to be built first, a location as near central as possible, to be con- venient for all pupils until West High should be built, was chosen. Mr. Albert H. Wilcox, who, after graduating from the University of Rochester, had recently completed extension work at the University of Chicago, was brought to Rochester in 1900 to be principal of the Rochester High School. The Construction of East High School was begun in 1901. It progressed at a normal pace until April, 1903. At that time the finishing touches were being put on it. However, conditions at the old school had become so bad that it was decided that the difficulties encountered in staying there were greater than would be those connected with moving into the unfinished building. Accordingly, 2100 students moved into an unfinished building, finding, as Mr. Wilcox has phrased it, that masons to right of them, plumb- ers to left of them, electricians in front of them volley'd and thunder'd! Twenty-one hundred students, in a building built to accommodate a thousand 8
