Sherman School 8-B class photographed in January of 1926. This northend school was built in 1891 from a design by Pickles & Sutton, architect. It was, as were several other Tacoma schools, named after a Civil War general, Union officer William Tecumseh Sherman. It was built on land purchased from Allen C. Mason. The school was used for 63 years before it was demolished in 1953, when a new school was built. (Olsen, "For the Record.") (WSHS)
