Overview

The ground-breaking ceremony for George Washington High School in San Francisco, CA, occurred on 11/04/1934. Following nearly two years of work, done as a WPA project, the school opened on 08/04/1936. Citizens of San Francisco passed a education bond issue that paid part of the high school's $2 million cost, with a large portion of the money coming from FDR's New Deal Administration.
