Jubilee Jottings

In 1894, the school committee complained that the school was understaffed (three staff members plus two pupil teachers) considering the roll was now 262.

In 1892 the Stratford District High School was constituted with Mr. Tyler as Headmaster- the roll opened with six.

In 1910, with the town population approximately 2000, the number of pupils at the schools was 544, of whom 112 were doing secondary work.

Early in 1922, when the population of the town now at 4000, Stratford Technical High School was opened. The Fenton Street site reverted to being a primary school. Following the retirement of MrTyler at the end of 1921, after 29 years as Principal, Mr L J Furrie was appointed Principal of Stratford Primary School.
