Latona School, Seattle, January 22, 1900
Order an ImageIn 1891, a new Latona School building was built in Wallingford. This was the same year that the neighborhood became part of the city of Seattle. The wood-frame school had four large classrooms and four teachers, each paid $900.00 for the year. A new, larger school was built next door in 1906, and the older building was torn down.
This photo of a class at the Latona School, was taken in 1900 by Seattle photographer Anders Wilse. It uses a once-popular style showing both the school building and a group picture. The varied ages of the students suggest that this group contained more than one class.
