Athletics
The boys of Bureau High School competed in basketball. It is probable that baseball and track were also
offered. We are searching for information on the school team's nickname, uniform colors, fight song, season records,
and coach's names.
Extra-Curricular Activities
Band, chorus, school plays, clubs, and banquets were also probably offered at Bureau High School. Information
on these events is welcome too.
MEMORIES
**From Lisa Thompson-Bittel:
"My grandmother, Mabel Brady Morris graduated from this school around 1916-18. Our family owned the
land that the trailer house sits on by the school for over a century. I attended this school in the early to late 70's. In
fact we were the first classes to move into the new addition with the particians. My name is Lisa Thompson-Bittel.
Is there any way of contacting other adults who attended? My cousin is the current Principal."
