Work was started on the annex in January, 1928, and finished in November, 1928, marking the end of the congested conditions then prevalent at Queen Anne. Twelve classrooms, a botany laboratory, a greenhouse, music room, boys' gymnasium, and a large auditorium compose one of the finest additions to any Seattle school.

With a seating capacity of over 1500, the auditorium is considered the finest in the city. lts ceiling is of fibrous material having excellent acoustic qualities. The stage is thirty feet by seventy feet. The walls and front stage are paneled attractively. making an unusually fine-looking room. The boys' gymnasium is spacious and well illuminated with skylights. The seating capacity is 500. Splendid lockers, shower and dressing rooms are directly accessible. Queen Anne students are greatly indebted to the Seattle School Board for their gen- erous provision for all the needs of the school. Donoruv Ti1oMPsoN. Scwn l
