Numero uno...


Construction began on School 1, a centralized school in March of 1876. The location was on School Street In downtown Woodbridge, The same building that now houses the administration was originally 71 X 112 feet, 2 floors, 6 apartments and accomodated 400 students. The cost to build was $25,000. School 1 was dedicated on January 6, 1877. The first graduating class was In 1884, where 13 girls And 1 boy recieved their diplomas.

Many of us started our school experience with kindergarten through third grade in that very building.
