NotesSome names are written on the back of the photograph as last names only and others are not clearly readable. Those that can be read are (not in order) Frances Arnold, Nellie Collins, Frank D. Thompson, G. H. Briggs, R. C. Roberts, Minnie Smith, Mabel Baxter, Anne Sisson, Cora F. Stone, DeLong, Rhodes, Townsend, and Prall. It is assumed that the woman in the circular image was not able to be present at the time the photograph was taken. The man in the center sitting in a large chair is believed to be the school principal as seen in later high school yearbooks.
