CGS 10 Year Timeline

 

1900-2000
Before doing our school timeline we each made our personal timelines. In doing the first one we had a better idea of how to do the school's timeline. We used a lot of sources for this group project. We looked at yearbooks, we looked at photos taken when the school was being built. We interviewed people who were here before we were, we asked at home, and we added our own memories. We saved all this information on charts and here are the things we recorded about the ten years our school has been open.
