Summary of Records
Scope and Content
This series contains scrapbooks created by the district to document work of the district and educational issues of concern at the time. The bulk of the content is newspaper clippings, with articles about such things as school board meetings, bond elections, progress on new school buildings, programs at various schools, staffing assignments, and broader educational issues. The scrapbooks also include some other materials, such as photos, flyers, and programs. A few references suggest that the scrapbooks were compiled by Stella H. Oaks, who worked in the school district offices.
