~ The Great Picture Project ~

To renovate the senior class pictures at
Osawatomie High School

During the Spring of 2006, a group of OHS Alumni members and friends formed a committee to renovate the senior class pictures hanging in the halls of our High School. During that summer, the pictures from 1894 throu 1978 were completed. The renovation included the following:

Reframing with sturdy metal sectional frames with plexiglass.
Adding the names to hundreds of photos that had hung unidentified for many years.
Cleaning and re-gluing each photo.
Adding pictures for several years not previously included.
Adding framed lists of names for years when no pictures were available.
