Page 10 'Twenty-two Hanrnuurr iqigh Srhnnl Historical Vancouver, a city of 13,000, on the north bank of the Columbia, saw its first teacher in the person of John Ball, a resident of the old Hudson Bay Company's fort in 1832. Pioneer school methods prevailed in this pioneer city down to the 80's. In 1887 the first high school was established, having three in its first graduating class, 1893. The high school was successively moved from the Central building to the Franklin building in 1905, and to its present commodious quarters in 1913. In 1922 the graduating class numbers 93. Our Plant About five acres, served by two street car lines, facing the paved Pacific Highway constitute our grounds. The building is of brick and concrete, with terra cotta trimming. In the south wing of the main building is installed a Junior depart- ment of Seventh and Eighth grades. An improved athletic field with track, concrete tennis courts, a spacious gymnasium, and a special building for shops, domestic art, and printing, are all a part of our equipment. Growth In 1906 our enrolment was less than 100. In 1913 when we moved into our new building the enrolment was 334. In June 1922 the number is 765, an increase of 100 per cent since moving to this building. Of our present enrolment, 38.1 per cent are Freshmen, 30.4 per cent Sophomores, 18.9 per cent Juniors, 12.6 per cent Seniors. , Our Junior High Department numbers 205. Our Faculty now numbers 22. Vancouver High is an accredited member of the Northwest Asso- ciation of Secondary and Higher Schools, and is inofficially accredited by the California Universities and some Eastern Universities.
