Mr. Will Hoist, a resident of Burbank at the present time, was a graduate of the class of 1911. The new building was first occupied in September, 1922. The student body of the new school totaled about 300 in number, with a teaching staff of 20. The old Union High School was then converted into an intermediate school with 7th and 8th grades and was used for instructional purposes into the year 1927, when it was torn down. In 1925, the intermediate school became a junior high school, drawing ninth grade pupils from the senior high.
Students benefit most from attending daily presentations and lessons by our teachers.
A student who misses a portion or all of a period in the day puts the student at a disadvantage in accessing information, knowledge, learning skills, and information application. Therefore, each student is required to attend all meetings of every class for which he or she is enrolled. Any student absent or tardy must have a note in writing from a parent specifying the reason for the absence. Students are responsible for making up all work missed within a reasonable time period outlined by the teacher. Parents should call the counseling office to receive homework after two consecutive days of an absence that is expected to continue.
