James Lodesky Revised Early History of Warren Township High School and Its Sports Teams.

Annotation

This book contains the early history of Warren Township High School, from its beginnings as Gurnees two-year high school. The two-year high school evolved first into a three-year high school and finally into a four-year township high school in 1917. It contains an early history of Warren sports teams, experiences of its students, and descriptions of life at Warren. If you are wondering why I named the book the Revised Early History of instead of just the Early History of, Ill explain. Originally, I only intended to write a history of Warrens football teams. While researching football, I occasionally ran across articles about the early years at Warren. I saved what I found and filed it away. Next, the Warren Township Historical Society asked me to write an account of Warren football for their newsletter. While writing about the football team, I decided to add all the other information about Warren I had found earlier and then called it the Early History of Warren Township High School. Six months after writing the article, I noticed a couple of mistakes that needed correction and decided to do a more in-depth study of the high schools history. I ended up with enough Warren history that I was able to write this book and correct my mistakes.
