IGNACIO HIGH SCHOOL ”A MONUMENT TO EDUCATION” Very seldom do we consider the contribution a building makes to the education of an individual. But we are taking a moment to think of the fact that we have facilities which enable our students and faculty to work in a clean, attractive environment. We have taken every opportunity to use the money we receive to obtain the best, up-to-date equipment and supplies. These facilities help to make education a very pleasant experience. There has been a noticable progressive movement in the size of the student body, the field of sports, the small faculty turnover from year to year, improved library facilities housing over 11 ,000 books, and many more improvements too numerous to mention here. All of these changes speak for themselves. Ignacio High School is and will always be a monument to education. ”
