(1)  "Built in 1882 near the present site of Central Elementary School at 9th Street and E Avenue, National School was the South Bay's first high school. National's successor, National City High School, was built in 1908 around that same location, where Central Elementary School now stands. To accommodate the growing population of high school students, Sweetwater Union High School was built in 1921 at 2900 Highland Avenue."  [Wikipedia]

(2)  “…In 1904, F.S. Allen moved to California to live and pursue architectural commissions. He designed his residences in Alta Dena and Pasadena. He also designed schools in San Diego, Santa Barbara, San Pedro, and Duarte, CA.  F.S. Allen was a founder of the Tournament of Roses Parade, and acted as Grand Marshall circa 1906.  In 1922, he closed his architecture practice and opened a music store in Pasadena, CA.”.  [http://www.cityofjoliet.com/halloffame/ARTISTS/FSALLEN.HTM]
