       IN HONOR OF THE 100TH ANNIVERSARY OF WOODLAND HIGH SCHOOL

                                 ______
                                 

                            HON. MIKE ROGERS

                               of alabama

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, April 5, 2017

  Mr. ROGERS of Alabama. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to recognize the 
100th Anniversary of Woodland High School.
  Woodland School was organized in 1917. It was the first consolidated 
school in Randolph County. It formed when Lamar, Cross Line, and New 
Site consolidated to form the school.
  The original school building consisted of a hall and five classrooms. 
Ten grades were taught there until 1928.
  The school will be celebrating the centennial with a ceremony on 
April 27, 2017. During the celebration, a time capsule will be sealed 
to be opened in 2042. Each grade will participate by contributing 
something for the time capsule.
  Woodland High School is beloved by its community, and many of its 
teachers are alumni who have returned to give back to the community 
that built them up.
  Mr. Speaker, please join me in celebrating Woodland's 100th 
Anniversary and in wishing them many more.

                          ____________________
