Description
Caption on the back of the photograph reads, “Art students at Langley Junior High School completing puppets in preparation for the presentation of a puppet show in the school assembly.” Langley High School, located in the Sheridan neighborhood of Pittsburgh, was named in honor of the noted astronomer and first director of the Allegheny Observatory, Samuel Pierpont Langley. April 9, 1923, marked the opening of Langley Junior-Senior High School. It was built to take the place of Riverside High School when a larger school was needed to accommodate the growing student population. Langley was the first Pittsburgh school to have a modern home economics kitchen, a new science department, and a public address system.
