The City of Newton owns a wealth of historic materials that speak to the community's social, cultural, and governmental past. These materials reflect the civic life of, and provide insight into, Newton from the 19th through the early 20th century, a time when Newton was transforming from agriculture to industry and becoming a suburban Boston residential community. Presented here is one black & white photographic panorama of the Frank Ashley Day Junior High School (100 Walnut Street, Newtonville, Massachusetts) graduating class of 1954 showing 150 students.
