Records of the school district of La Crosse, Wisconsin, consisting of minutes of the Board of Education, 1851-1971; published annual reports, 1874-1972; administrative bulletins, 1937-1974; clipping scrapbooks, 1875-1954; and administrative subject files. The last-named contains school directories; budgets and information on teacher salaries; surveys and planning materials for construction and renovation of buildings; handbooks for teachers, parents, and students; curricular materials and evaluations; and other publications and reports. There are also files of brochures and printed materials on individual schools such as Central High School and Logan Junior High School, as well as bulletins and other records of Emma Erickson School. Of special interest is a 1936 study of high school graduates and scrapbooks about the turn of the century “Penny Savings System” and the PTO of Washburn School, 1917-1934. Although there is little administrative correspondence in the series, there is a large file of correspondence of former superintendent Richard Bardwell about the administration of child care in La Crosse during World War II. The few photographs received with the series illustrate that child care program, Central High School, and the Fifth Ward School (circa 1883).
