Washburn High School Part 1


I atten-
ded Wash-
burn High School from 1980-1984. The following is from Wikipedia:
"Washburn High School was built in 1925 to meet the demands of the growing south Minneapolis neighborhood. Construction for the new three-story building began in 1924 after the Minneapolis Board of Education purchased unused land in Washburn Park. Land next to the school was occupied by the Washburn Memorial Orphan Asylum, now torn down and replaced with what is now Ramsey International Fine Arts Center. Washburn is located in the Tangletown neighborhood of southern Minneapolis at 201 west 49th Street."
