The old school building, 200 feet to the West, ‘was erected about 60 years ago and was built as a Public School with six rooms and an audi­ torium. In the course of time the auditorium became class rooms—the north and south wings were added to westerly—and later two rooms were added to the north wing east­ erly. Thus, graduall the old build­ ing became both a Public and a High School with six teachers in each sec­ tion. More additions were not feas­ ible, consequently this new building was an absolute necessity. The teaching staff consists of,— High School Edmund J. Wethey, Principal Miss Greta Abray Alvin J.
