Class of '94

Wednesday evening, June 20, promptly at 8 o’clock, at Thomas’ Opera House, the graduating class of 1894 will appear in their very best.

The class will number anywhere from fifteen to twenty: there will surely be four young men and eleven young ladies and possibly there will be five young men and fifteen young ladies. Fifteen have been ready since March: this is as it should be. The average age is little more than seventeen years, the youngest being sixteen, the oldest nineteen. Six members of the class will each have a sixty count Regents' Certificate. All but two will have a Regents' academic diploma, that is, a Regents' fifty count certificate. The class will have reached the highest standard from a Regents; standpoint of any class that has graduated. It is safe to say that a program is to be presented that will be attractive, profitable, and creditable to the school.
