Formed at this time was district eleven, the Union school district. Since the first public school building was occupied around 1880, Union schools have made great progress. The first public school building was a small white building which formerly had been the townis Presbyterian church. From the Little White School Housei' the Union school moved into the building now known as Central Grammar school, then to the structure now used by Main Street Iunior High. In 1927, Union High School moved to its present location on Main Street. Since that time, Union High has continued to grow. The shop, Iolly building, gymnasium, bandhouse, and finally the Clifford building have been added to accommodate the growing activities of an ever-increasing student body. Changes, however, have not been limited to the buildings. At first, only nine grades were offered. A big change was made in 1909 when the tenth grade was added. The eleventh grade was added in 1915. For 32 years eleventh graders were the seniors. In 1948 the twelfth grade was added. Throughout the long past, an A meant a grade of 90-100. This year a new grading system went into effect. Now an A means 95-100, B denotes a grade in the 88-94 range, C is between 79 and 87, Dv, 70-785 En, 60-69, and HFS is 59 and below. Seventy is the magic mark which a pupil must attain to pass a subject. :ix Q' Ni n .
