|a During the year 1925, C.L. Littel, Superintendent, helped to establish the first junior college in Washington state. Under the direction of Miss Margaret Corbet, the college was housed on the third floor of the high school building. (Centralia has the distinction of having the oldest continuously operating [junior] community college in the State of Washington.)
In 1936 a new high school gymnasium was completed on property which previously had been purchased by the Centralia School District, at the southwest corner of Iron and Walnut Streets. A brick annex had been built on the northeast corner. A residence which had housed home economics classes was removed to make room for the gym. This house was moved to midway between Pear and Plum Streets on South Iron for use as a men's residence hall for junior college students. It was later sold.
The gymnasium was remodeled in 1971, and beginning in the Spring of 2008, is once again undergoing a major renovation.
These photos were included in the 1937 "Student Life at Centralia High School." They include the front entrance of the high school, faculty members (many whom taught college classes), and construction and completion of the new gymnasium |
