LaGrange High School - Resume Yearbook (Lake Charles, LA)

Page 10 text:

EDUCATION MUST HAVE A PROGRESSIVE PROGRAM The foundation of any high school consists of the elementary and junior high schools which provide basic training in preparation for higher education. Without adequate training in the vitally important years preceding high school and college, the student cannot acquire the fullest measure of learning Which is imperative in today's rapidly developing economy. LaGrange Senior High depends upon the elementary and junior high schools of District 22 to provide this basic training. During the past fifteen years the educational plants of this district have grown from one to fourteen. Each student enrolled in the other thirteen schools is a potential student of LaGrange Senior High. The Resume Staff chose as this year's theme the growth of educational facilities in District 22 as a tribute to the school and the persons responsible for them.
