'l'f..!2,sh.i... .llllilflf Webster's unabridged dictionary defines legacy as some- thing received from an ancestor or predecessor a gift by will. Although not often heard today, legacy is an appropriate label for all tangibles and intangibles which have been left by past PHS students for those of the present. This legacy includes alumni accomplishments in sports, academics, leadership, and the arts, it includes traditions which continue year to year, and it includes the history of the Pattonville district. The legacy of past Pattonville defines present Pattonville. This year's students contributed their triumphs and disappointments and thus enriched the legacy for future Pattonville. Pattonville's history began 135 years ago when land in the northwest part of the county was being subdivided into school districts. In 1850, a one-room brick schoolwas built on the site of the present Pattonville Elementary School. Students here had to 2 History carry drinking water from a spring and had to chop wood for the school's stove. In 1880, this building was replaced with a larger frame struc- ture. Behind the new building was a stable for the teacher's horses. By 1900, this school was badly damaged. lts walls were covered with initialsg its ceiling was decorated with spitballs, and its floors were weakened by many holes students had burned. ln 1907, a S4000gbond was issued to replace this school with a two-room brick building which was later expanded to six rooms. In 1934, a high school was built on St. Charles Rock Road. Two students were graduated at the first commencement in 1936. As the district grew, additions were made to this building. By 1966, however, it was so crowded that double sessions were held, and plans were made for a larger school. In 1970, the present high school on Creve Coeur Mill Road was completed. by B.
