Mit - 1 E nniuemary Wofed To the best of our knowledge the class of 1946 is the 30th Anniversary class. By this we mean that the class of 1916 was the first class of four year graduates with an eight month term. The available records show graduates in the year 1899, but this was from a three year high school. Later we had a four year high school but the term was only seven months. Again from available records we find seventeen principals with their respective years of service. The 100th Anniversary Copy of the Courier Times 119411 and records since then show 331 graduates from New Lisbon High School. N7 PRINCIPALS Charles Swain ..,..,.... ....,.,.,. 1 899-1902 T. G.
