Junior High School

Description:

Students sit at desks reading while a teacher watches. Appears to be a French language class; all of the chalkboard writing and text on classroom posters is in French. Six slides were in a box labeled "Junior High School" (there were two other boxes in the set labeled "West Junior High School"). It is possible these were taken in the new Walter French Junior High School that was located at the southwest corner of Cedar Street and Mt. Hope Avenue, completed in September 1925. However, according to the 1925-1926 Directory of Public Schools, only the Senior High School had a French class that year, taught by G. Claude Graham. The age of the students in these slides appears to be more in line with high school-aged students.
