The land had been bought in 1851 by the West Pittston Land Association, and was later taken by one of the members, E. A. Coray, who then sold it to the founders of the academy. Although the latter was opened with a student at- tendance of over 300, its existence was a precarious one, and the owners of the property made a proposition early in 1873 to sell it to the school district for 32,800 After much controversy, the academy was formally purchased in Au- gust, 1874, and the Vine Street property was disposed of at public auction. The records of the board tell us that in 1876 the high school was established and a course of study adopted. A class was organized and plans were made to complete the course in 1878. The six members of the first graduating class were: Gertrude N. Griffith, Clara Hiscock, Laura B. Lance, Anna L. Meade, Jessie Sax, and Wilbur Stevens. The first and second Commencement exer- cises were held in the First Methodist Episcopal Church, and the third, in 1880, was held in Music Hall. As the school population continued to grow, new buildings kept pace with it: first, in 1882, a four-room brick building on the Warren Street corner cf the property 9 eight years later, the Linden Street building, and, in 1897, a two- story brick building at the corner of Washington Street and Exeter Avenue. Ten years later, the school board saw the need for new classrooms, Two lots 8 quam we :LW XX xx SCHOOL BUILDING on Luzerne Avenue between Parke and Spring Streets were accordingly pur- chased, and construction begun. Although, before it was completed, the entire area was affected by a mine subsidence, the new high school was finally opened in 1909. The 1910 class, housed in the new building, was graduated from the Strand Theatre, on Broad Street, adjacent to the Gazette Building. In 1924, the district was reorganized on the 6-3-3 planfsix years for the elementary grades, three for the Junior High School, and three for the Senior High School. Previously, the 8-4 plan had been used. This year, the enrollment was so large that the Senior High School occupied the building in the morning, and the Junior High School held their sessions in the afternoon. This was the last year in which Commencement exercises took place in the Strand. The school auditorium was to become the scene of graduation activities henceforth. After a study of conditions that fall, the board decided to erect a modern J unior-Senior High School on the present site, rather than to enlarge the Lu- zerne Avenue structure to accommodate the increasing school population. The Warren Street and Wyoming Avenue buildings were abandoned. The new building was placed in operation at the beginning of the 1927-8 school term at a total construction cost of ?'p325,000. Double sessions were resumed at that time. In June, on the occasion of the fiftieth Commencement, baccalaureate services were held in the new auditorium. 9 Oo 00 fir!

An orchestra came into existence during the 1923-4 school term, and a year later the first glee club and orches- tra concert gave pleasure to both per- formers and audience. In 1928-9 a 23- piece school band became the nucleus g of our .present flourishing musical or- gamzauon' Sifnonson tBi'idei, Lola uMcCall Rindgen, Edward Jefferson For a period of eight years waves of excitement would blow over the senior class during the Easter holidays, a season that brought the annual trip to Washington, anticipated for four years. Money had been raised for it by various means, such as oratorical contests and senior plays. The first trip was taken by the class of 1916 in a private car on the Jersey Central Railroad. The capital city was a place of lively interest to the seniors, who sometimes were lucky enough to meet the President. A later big event was the annual Field Day when students of all ages competed in track and field events In June 1929 for example eight hundred participants performed before a crowd of 4 000 spectators The last day of school was quite different from ours we are told Then the sen iors willed their stage props and other articles to the incoming class At its gradua tion, each class sang songs and recited poems before the assembled p irents It seems that our alumni would have us think that their act vities were more enjoyable than ours Of course, we know better than that or do we?
