Memphis Vocational High School

1915-1916 |

Below:
Is this the first Tech
Yearbook?
It was published by the school to cover the 1915-16 school years.
While it's not the traditional Yearbook which features the
graduating seniors, the school refers to it on the inside cover as
"Memphis Vocational School YEARBOOK". It's an interesting
booklet which discusses why the school was organized in 1911,
describes every program at the school, as well as the enrollment and
number of graduates from 1911-1916.
Note: While the Smith-Hughes government program didn't
become associated with the school until 1918, the school already had a
well-equipped print shop from its beginning in 1911.

Vocational High School appears on "penny postcards" of
the time. |
