for
June 2018 - May 2019!!
This website grew out of a plan to start a website for the Class
of 1955 (first class to graduate from new Residence Avenue
building), but soon many other classes showed interest, so
The
Albany High Times
was created instead, for all classes.
The number of Indians (classes of 1933 - 2018) in the tent is
close to 2,000.
The website has connected classmates in a wonderful way, and
those listed below who have volunteered to be Sponsors for
the next year, are a part of making that happen! They are:

In 1908,
a
two-story building with ten class rooms and two bicycle
racks,
was the first actual
Albany High School. It
was built on the southwest corner
of Monroe Street and Society Avenue. It was an 11
grade school.
Mr.
J.O. Allen was Principal. The south end of the school was
for boys and the north end was for girls! There was no
lunchroom. There were only 11 grades!
