Located in Southern Indiana on the Ohio River, New Albany is the site of the first high school in Indiana and the second oldest continually operated high school in the state. The present main huilding was opened in l927. It is the nucleus of all student activity. The gym, auditorium, radio workshop, faculty offices, and many classes are located here. The newest building on our campus is our Mechanic Arts lvuilding. Built in 1951, it houses our vocational classes plus our hand rooms. ln our agriculture building, equipment and facilities are provided to encourage the rural-minded student. The Cora Nlartin building. popularly called the Annex. is the core of freshman activity. Nlost freshman classes and homerooms are located here. To anyone who has entered the doors of NAHS and walked its halls, it is more than just mortar and brick. It is a place where improvement is imperativeg where the individual may take his place in the group and yet remain individualg where we go with pride and without pressure. X.-XHS is the place our ideals and purpose in life are formedg a place we may enter with fear and leave with hope. The Cora Martin An- nex has served us as an auxiliary building for 14 years.
