Fredonia High School Established 1888.
In its early years, the school made no provision for athletics; it had no library and its music department was equipped with one wheezy organ whose pedals and keys did not synchronize. The English course did not include the study of Shakespeare, and students interested in his work organized a study club which met at night.
Graduation was a very long affair, for each graduate gave an oration as his share of the final program. The exercises were usually held at the Hudson Opera House.
