Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Annual Report of the School Committee of the City of Boston: 1892
Nov. 4, 1892, the Robert G. Shaw (formerly Mt. Vernon) Grammar School at West Roxbury was dedicated, making a total of one High, four Grammar, and seven Primary schools, or twelve in all, which is the largest number of school buildings ever dedicated and occupied in any one year. In addi tion to these, there have been commenced during the year - the appropriation having already been made a new building for the Agassiz. Grammar School, Jamaica Plain; a new Primary for the Lyman Dis triot, East Boston; one for the Dillaway District in Roxbury; and one for the Lincoln District, South Boston. The land has also been purchased on Adams and Chestnut streets, Charlestown, for a new Primary, which shall contain Manual Training and Cooking Schools for that Division. In Jamaica Plain, land has been purchased adjoining the present West Roxbury High School, which will provide for the enlargement of that building at an early date.
