The Norwood High School building is located in what has become in the years since it was first built the finest residential section of the town.
The building has grown since its first inception and the school lias grown greatly also. Its grounds are well cared for and new busts, portraits, and other adornments of an appropriate character are being added year by year in its main hall. What is probably the largest class in the school’s history will be graduated at this year’s annual commencement which will occur on the evening of June 16. There will be twenty-five graduates, perhaps more.
The addition of a commercial course to the school facilities within the past few years has helped greatly in increasing the school’s membership. Miss Louise Hoyle, who also held, we believe, high-class honors, when graduated from the ninth grade, will be the valedictorian of the class, and Miss Avis Baston, the salutatorian.
Not the least among the school’s sources of pride is its admirable baseball team which has won eleven victories this year and experienced only one defeat, and that under the adverse conditions incident to playing in a driving rain storm.
