- - - - ------F --------,.T1GER--i-f------ Formal Opening of New High School On the night of August the thirty-first, the Board of Education and High School Faculty received all who wished to see the new high school, completed. Printed booklets stating the process by which it was built, together with the cost of various contracts and a directory for the building, were handed each who entered, with a welcome to view every part of our new home. Lighted throughout, the building was a very pretty sight to behold and pleased most people beyond expectation. Many were the compliments received by over four thousand who attended. Each teacher stayed in her room or department, ready to meet patrons and explain her phase of school work. The building consists of three floors, has three well lighted and ample corridors, two study halls conveniently located, and twenty-five class and special rooms. The administration offices are well located near the main entrance. Men and women teachers each have separate rest rooms provided with individual lockers. Students have locker rooms inbwhich each has his own locker with key. The special rooms are Sewing, Cooking, Manual Train- ing, Library, Biology, Chemistry and Physics laboratories, Book- keeping and Typewriting. The football field in the rear, was put into shape for use last falland we think, helped to make our team as good as it was since it gave them a longer practice period than has otherwise been possible in going to and from the Leclaire Field. Much remains to be done to the Held, grounds and building, but if each successive installment is as thorough and substantial as the building is now, we shall be glad to wait for a new gym- nasium, auditorium and cafeteria. --------1--T 1926----'-------- 1 1 - 1 1un1n'o Nine
