In 1872 a stone building, yet standing and comprising a part of the present grade building, was built at a cost of $6,000. In 1884 the brick part of the present grade building was built and this, together with some frame ward buildings, housed the continually growing schools till the present high school building was erected in 1904 at a cost of $17,000. The school district at present is in excellent financial condition running on a 23. mill leyy with a sufficient surplus at the beginning of each year so that all warrants are instantly cashed through the year without drawing interest. The Tecumseh High School graduated its first class in 1887. Since that time with this year’s class 350 students have been graduated, the classes continually growing in size till this year’s class numbers thirty-eight. In 1898 the Tecumseh High School became a twelve grade high school and in 1908 it became a normal training high school, recognized by the state department.
