As the school year wraps up, here’s a group photo of the students of Vernon High School on the front steps of the three-room brick high school which opened in January 1904 on Mason Street (later 28th Street). Principal and teacher Clarence Fulton is located on the far left. Photo taken in 1905. (GVMA photo #2790)
