The North Ogontz Avenue entrance adjacent to the Gymnasium. The terrace adds a campus-like quality to the building. The exterior of the building is complete, even with the installation of shrubberies and trees. The school has been open to its first classes (172nd-179th) since February 1, 1939, and soon the first semester in the new CHS facility will come to a close. May 25, 1939 (Photo courtesy of www.phillyhistory.org)
