'I 3 '- - ni ..a i -ax ' XXX N S . . - W'-Easing- ,M -H1 if-.T'.1f'f QQJQ ,els of g ew ax omg: f so is To Students of the Helena High School: Over half a century ago, the Helena High School held its first Commencement Exercise for three graduates. This year's class will number one hundred forty, the largest in the history of the school. High school em'o1lment in the United States at large has doubled every ten years since the year 1890. In 1890, fifty-eight were enrolled in the Helena High School. This year's enrollment has reached a total of nine hundred one. This represents an in- crease of approximately 100 per cent every decade since 1890. The increase has been over 22 per cent during the last two years. At this rate, the enrolhnent will more than double during the present ten year period. ' Forty-three of the fifty years during which graduation exer- cises have been held, the high school has been housed in the present building. A 1933 school is now confined to an 1890 building outlay. These facts must have a bearing upon oiu' near future. The demands made by increased enrolhnent and an educational pro- gram suited to modern conditions render our present plant inade- quate and obsolete. For Helena, a new high school building would be no 1'llX'l1I'y. It is strictly becoming a necessity if, indeed, that point has not already been reached. Sincerely yours, Superintendent of Schools. -9- ,. A - .Y ., V... GN.,-. 5-sa : - 2 '-54251 ': ,.f ' -'Z E Z. 3-1 T5 : 2 :E .. fr 2 -f 4 -3 ?
