Menasha High School, 1935

 

As detailed here in previous posts, the next year, in March of 1936, Menasha High School burned and the need for a new school was paramount. The fire’s exact origin is unknown, but it was thought to have started in the machine shop. To keep the school year going, classes were distributed among the remaining schools and other public buildings until the new high school could be completed in 1938.
