,Ls Last year the Mountain Grove Public Schools were classified as a AM school. This has been the culmination of much effort and planning which began with the first acadew estab- lished in 1857. It was not until 1887, however, that the lbuntain Grove School District was famed. Today seven buildings and an athletic field comprise the educational plant of this community. Many thousands of graduates, and countless numbers of teachers, have gone from this institution to ocwpy places of leadership and responsibility in every walk of life. -v- ' 5 1 EV MWYMM llll l Ill I loWWMj44JMMa -a aa'e ibm?
