Year By Year Navigation

Notes of Interest

Lajuan (Nichols) Norvelle supplied a 1953-54 Yearbook from which much of this information was taken.

The Yearbook for this year list only three bus drivers.  Were there only three bus routes this year?  I had other reports that this was the case in the last few years of operation.

Apparently both 7 & 8 were integrated into the high school program. The number of teachers appears to have dropped to seven.
