aaegwagdt School now L- Cf'0l-'Se M Tglan Q School then 5 Ellensburgs first real high school building was built in 1890 f0f the Qityts public schools. This building served its purpose well until 1912. The people, realizing the building was filled to capacity, had plans drawn up and our present building was builtl- All the high school classes since those in 1915 have used this building. Among other facilities this building had a gymnasium, auditorium, manual training and commercial art rooms, as well as domestic science and science laboratories. Then in 1957, seven years after the completion of the Morgan junior High School, our present shops, home economics rooms and some junior high classrooms were added to the junior and senior high school. The gymnasium, added the same year, is one of the best in the valley. We are proud of our excellent school buildings.

Jade? ide TEACHERS AND ADMINISTRATION Many changes have occurred since our school began--the number W of students has steadily increased and new facilities ht been installed gy, to take care of the increasing need. New teachers have been added until now they number twenty- seven, a sharp contrast to the six or seven teachers in the early nineteen hundreds. As the number of teachers increased, the duties of the faculty gradually became more specialized. Early responsibilities of a principal included coaching athletic eventi. Currently our superintendent and principal are chiefly occupied with the administrative duties. First Superintendent: Prof. F. M. McCuIIy G. L. Putnam M.
