About 12 girls in white are seen walking across the lawn at front of First Avenue School (Arcadia Grammar School at this time, 1935). They have garlands of flowers over their shoulders to commemorate their graduation from 8th grade. Photo is also interesting because construction scaffolding is across front of school.
Looking across graduating class of Arcadia High School students on football field on campus. A back-drop and speakers platform has been set up on left side of photo. Parents and guests are on far side of graduating class. Graduation ceremony.
First Avenue class picture with no identification of the students. There is a row of boys sitting Indian-style in the front row, then two rows of girls and a fourth row of boys at the top.
Four people standing in front of palm tree and other tree. They are, L-R: Elmer Westerhouse, superindentent of schools; Ellison Leake, first graduate of Arcadia School; Mary Robelard, first teacher; and Walter G. Coombs, principal.
Arcadia Fire Department snorkel truck is parked close to entrance to First Avenue Junior High School following a major fire that hit the school. Seven firemen are seen in their gear, talking together.
Photo taken toward SW at front of Arcadia Grammar School. Possibly was taken after Holly Avenue School was opened. Note tree beyond telephone pole. This is probably large magnolia at First Avenue Junior High School today.
Apparently taken in the High School gymnasium which has been decorated for special event. Many students are seated at tables, for what probably was a dinner following graduation.
