“Mineola High School (Texas)”的意思、由来-开放百科全书

Until 1901, all students in Mineola attended school in a two-story brick building in "Block C" of the city. That same year, the school board authorized the construction of a two-story frame building and the high school students were educated in this building with all other grades until a separate high school was constructed in 1914.^[3] That school was destroyed by a fire on March 27, 1924. A new school was opened in 1925, and razed in 1968. This building was located in the 400 block of West Blair Street. The present high school was constructed in 1968.
