Central School

In 1930, the building today known as Central Elementary was added to the high school building as a junior high. In the spring of 1929 the Board of Education sought a proposed bond to replace the Central Grade School building. The taxpayers passed the bonding issue of $200,000 by a vote of 731 to 123. The division of cost was $100,000 for the Elementary School, $80,000 for the Gymnasium, and $20,000 for remodeling of the High School. The new school would have a capacity of 600 pupils and 13 classrooms.
