HISTORY SUTTER SCHOOL

 

 

The present Sutter Junior High School building was opened originally in 1908 as the new home of the Sacramento High School.  Less than five hundred members made up the first student body of this four-year high school.

 

Owing to very rapid growth in the years following, two branch first-year high schools were opened; one, the Harkness at Tenth and P streets; and the other, the Mary J. Watson at Fifteenth and J streets.  Again numbers increased, and the senior high school moved to its present quarters, leaving its outgrown building for boys and girls growing up.  Accordingly, Harkness and Watson ninth graders, together with sevenths and eighths from some elementaries, moved into it, and the building became known as Sutter Junior High School.

 

This organization took place in August, 1924, so that the present year marks the tenth anniversary for Sutter Junior High School during all of which time it has been served and efficiently directed by its present principle, Mr. B. W. Painter, who moved with his students from Harkness and Miss Lizzie Griffin, vice principal, who accompanied her girls from Watson.

 

For many years about 75 per cent of the students were in ninth grades, the other 25 per cent being seventh and eighth grades combined.  The present group as a result of the junior high school program now enjoyed throughout Sacramento city, is quite evenly distributed, making for the development of more defective junior high school accomplishment.

 

Student organization has always been an important part of the Sutter's program, and there follows an enumeration of those who have served Sutter as student body officers during the decade.
