    The high school was erected in 1925. The enrolment for the beginning of the first semester of 1925 totaled 231 pupils. Modern in construction, the school has three laboratories; a domestic science laboratory; a manual training work shop; and a general science laboratory equipped with modern electrial motors and other devices used in scientific courses offered in the school curriculum.
    The school is accredited and was granted a continuous commission in 1925. The teaching force now consists of ten teachers.
    A complete commercial course is offered and a course in safety was added this year.
    Last year a new gymnasium was erected adjoining the high school building. This building, with a seating capacity of nearly 3,000, was constructed at the cost of $45,000.
