OUR HIGH SCHOOL
The Crook County High School
was established in accordance with
a law passed by the legislature of
1901, authorizing any county in
the State of Oregon so desiring to
establish a high school by submit
ting the matter to the electors of
the county. Through the efforts
of William Boegli, then county
superintendent of schools, and a
number of other prominent citi
zens of the county a petition was
circulated asking the county court
to submit the matter to the voters
in the election of June 1902, and
considerably more than the requir
ed 100 signers were secured. Ac
cordingly the question was voted
upon at the following election and
was carried by a considerable ma
jority, although no hard fight was
made or needed to secure a favor
able decision from the people.
The law states that the county
judge, two county commissioners,
county treasurer, and county
superintendent of schools shall
constitute the Board for the gov
ernment of these schools. These
offices were then filled by W. A.
Booth, judge, M. D. Powell and II.
J. Healy, commissioners, M. II.
Bell, treasurer, and William
Boegli, superintendent, and by
them, a suitable building being
lacking, an arrangement was made
with the directors of the public
schools of Prineville that the high
school branches should be taught
in the public school then under the
principalship of E. E. Orton.
Twelve pupils were enrolled dur
ing the following term, the ma
jority being residents of Prineville
Owing to an epidemic in the spring
of 1903, the school was closed be
fore the end of the eession and as
a consequence some were not able
to complete the year's work. Dur
ing this year Judge Booth resigned
because of ill health and M. R.
Biggs was appointed in his stead.
In the fall of 1903, A. C
Strange, the present incumbent,
was elected as principal and a room
was secured in the postoflice build
ing for the use of the school. Six
teen pupils presented themselves,
eight from localities outside of
Prineville, of whom eight were in
the second year and eight in the
first. Of these ten completed the
year's work and were promoted.
During the ensuing summer, the
contract for the erection of a mag-
nificant brick and stone building
costing about $20,000 and planned
by architect J. B. Shipp of Prine
ville, was awarded to C. A. Gray
of Salem. In October following
the building was completed and
occupied by the school. I
The foundation, corners, and
cornice work is of the black basalt
so plentiful in Crook county, one
of the most beautiful and lasting
of building stones, and is of
strength sufficient for a much
larger structure. The building is
built of brick and roofed with tin
making it almost proof against fire
from outside sources. There are
four large well-lighted class rooms,
of which two can be thrown to
gether for assembly purposes.
There are also two smaller rooms
for use as library and principal's
office. The basement is large and
well lighted and is adapted for use
as labratory, industrial training,
and athletic departments. The
campus consists of a block 240 by
200 feet, furnishing an abundance
of room for outside games, school
botanical work, etc. It is the in
tention to fence it, plant grass and
trees and make of it something in
which the people of the county will
take as much pride as they now do
in the building. The rooms are
heated by steam and ventilated by
the foul-air shaft system and both
are so nearly perfect that no par
ent need fear the endangering of
the health of his children from
lack of warmth or of fresh air.
The building is located in a sight
ly spot and is one of the first and
most imposing sights which meet
the eyes of the visitor to Prineville,
The third year forty pupils were.
enrolled of whom twenty one came
from districts outside of Prineville.
Miss Sarah Marshall, an alumnus
of an eastern normal school, was
elected as teacher of English and
Latin and a successful year's work
followed.
The fourth year, Miss Margaret
A. Goodin of Pacific University
was elected as teacher of English
and Historv and the enrollment
reached fifty-seven. Of these thirty
came from districts outside of
Prineville and the school made ex
cellent progress in all directions
The fifth year an enrollment of
at least eighty pupils is expected
and plans lm-e been made for as
many. Another teacher has been
added to the corps, a physical
labratory and other apparatus
have been secured, the seating ca
pacity has been increased, and as
good work should be done as is
done in any school of academic
grade in the state. ith proper
patronage by the people of the
county the school will grow not
only in size but in the quality of
the work done until we have here
one of the best institutions of its
kind in the west.
The Crook County High School
was established because of the com
plete lack of schools of higher rank
in central Oregon making it neces
sa-ry for parents desiring to give
their children education above the
common school to send them to
schools distant from home, at great
expense, far from parental super
vision and control and subject to
many te.nptations and dangers at
a period in life when they need the
parent most. Prineville, being not
only the county seat but the
largest and most centrally located
town in the county wag selected as
the home of the school, and her
citizens fully appreciate the honor
conferred upon their town and the
advantages of having it and will
protect it and will advance its
growth by such municipal laws as
are possible and practicable. It is
hoped to so build up the school as
to make it entirely unnecessary
for residents of the county to send
their children to other schools for
education ot any kind as high as
four years above the common
school, literary, industrial, or busi
ness. To that end we solicit the
interest and support of the parents
and promise that the welfare and
growth not only mental but moral
and physical, of their children
shall be looked after as far as pos
sible.
The conditions for admission are
the passing of the eighth grade ex
amination and the securing of a
diploma signed bv the county
superintendent of this or any other
county of Oregon. These exami
nations are held several times a
year in every school district in the
state and the opportunity is thus
given any young man or woman
wishing to enter this or any high
school to show his preparedness for
it.
Grades earned in any other high
school or college preparatory school
of standing by any pupil aiming
to enter the second, third, or fourth
year will be accepted without ex
amination. If the standing of the
school is not good or if the appli
cant has no record of grades made
he must pass an examination to
enter above the first year.
There is no expense for tuition,
consequently the expenses which
the parent sending his children
here must incur are only the pur
chase of necessary supplies and of
board. This need not exceed $125
a year and may be much reduced.
Many girls earn entirely their way
through school by working in the
homes of the city, and frequently
jobs are offered the boys by which
they may help in the payment of
their expenses. Srne rent houses
or rooms and board themselves
and, in fact, few of the students
from outside localities have so far
been put to as much as $125 ex
pense per year.

logue of the Crook County High
School just published.
