Syllabus - East Orange High School - 1924

...under construction...

This yearbook was donated by Wendy Smith of Alabama. She found the yearbook in a local flea market in Leeds, Alabama. She searched for an owner, but had no luck, so she contacted us in January of 2018 to make sure the book would be well taken care of and preserved for future generations in the city of East Orange, NJ.

Page 1 - The drawing of East Orange High School in 1924 was made by Senior William H. Hohmeyer, Art Editor for this Syllabus. His photo is on page 33.
