Talk:Central High School (Davenport, Iowa)

Untitled
this site needs more details of the school like activites and events

Not sure about this article. It says the school opened in 1907 as Davenport High School. However, my understanding is that DHS opened decades earlier. 1907 is simply the start of a new campus. In fact, the older high school buildings in Davenport were always called DHS, and never have I read that they changed administration during their campus changes. Therefore, I think it is wrong to say the school opened in 1907. Instead, it should say that the current campus opened in 1907. Anyways by making it clear that the current campus and the earlier ones are the same school we can add notable alumni such as the Davenport group writers and so on... — Preceding unsigned comment added by JiggyWittit (talk • contribs) 14:22, 13 February 2014 (UTC)
 * If you could find some sources for that, that'd be a great thing to add. The distinction between school and school building is vague, but the language in the text could be clarified. Attaboy (talk) 17:22, 13 February 2014 (UTC)
 * downer v1 p934 has history. p923 has low-quality pics of both older campuses. basically it was always the public city high school and named as such. only the campus changed. both older buildings were razed. the 1874 campus is now lincoln elementary. the 1863 campus is now halligan-mccabe funeral home. pdf copy of downer at archive.org... https://archive.org/details/historyofdavenpo01down


 * i have collection of photographs for both old campuses. maybe i'll pick the best one of each and put them on the page? — Preceding unsigned comment added by JiggyWittit (talk • contribs) 20:20, 13 February 2014 (UTC)

State Champ Record??
Could someone provide a source for the claim that we have the most state championships. As much as I would love for this to be true, Ames has 20 boys' T&F champs and CR Wash has 27(!) boys' swimming championships so I don't know if the T&F + Basketball champs will carry us...
