-f- - --- The VintonArro1r for Nineteen Hundred and Twenty-four ---------H The Vinton Schools A. B. ALLEN PRESIDENT E. A. BUXTON R. L. BORLAND J. E. LUCKEY W. C. HULSE The Vinton Public School system is a silent testimony to the fact that the Vinton people have been true Americans. They have put a great deal of money into the buildings and equipment in order that the children of the com- munity might have the greatest opportunities. The history of the schools is very interesting. The first high school was in the West Building. Since the need of better equipment and a larger build- ing was evident it was found necessary to arrange in some way for the de- ficiency. The East building had burned down just a little while before so it was convenient to rebuild that school with the idea of using the upper floor for a high school. llntil 1922 this was the high school as Well as a grade building. After being urged for many years the Vinton school board at this time decided to build a new exclusive high school building. In 1923 the first class graduated. That the school board has succeeded in, giving to the students the very best of everything is not to be doubted. As the second class to gradute here it gives us great pleasure to express our deep gratitude to the Vinton tax-payers and to the school board for the splendid spirit of cooperation that has made our life in this building a time of greatest happiness and benefit. NVe feel that when we go forth into the world we go forth with a backing that few young Americans-that of a su- perior high school training and a town that is supporting us to the limit. Our hope is that we may in some way help others as they have helped us. ......-......-......-..- ...-..........-,...........-.............-......-..-..-..-..-.............................g. :ill 442114 I II I :--nina ln--ui 4...
