1910s
EDUCATION
A larger high
school building was needed, and the 900 block between Chipeta and Gunnison
Avenues was bought for the new location. The central section was built in
1911, and wings on
each side were
added beginning in 1917. There were 36 rooms and an auditorium for 500. The
small number of students in 1891 had grown to over 600.
