Senior Class Photographs
For many years photographs of the graduating seniors were taken and then photographs of the school principal and the teacher or teachers who were the class sponsors were added to make a composite which was then photographed and the photograph was framed and hung in the wall of the high school building. The practice of hanging a copy of the composite has been discontinued now, I understand, for lack of suitable space. Discussions have been held about what to do with the old composites. One suggestion that was made was that they be sold.
Tania Golden Nelson has devoted a lot of her time and effort to copy many of these and has shared them with the Vardaman History Project. Her efforts will help insure that many of these images will continue to be available to future generations and we owe her a great deal of appreciation for doing this.
The photographs that I've been given can be seen on the links below.
