💡 | The answer to yesterday's National Trivia Day question!
Edward W. Boshart was Principal when the brand-new Binghamton Central High School opened in 1915. Graduating senior Earl Tolley wrote of Boshart in the 1916 Panorama yearbook:
"Professor Boshart has aimed throughout the entire year to cause harmony to exist among the teachers and students. He has tried to make the students feel that B.C.H.S. is being managed for their own welfare and that so much benefit will be derived from it as true spirit is put into it. The General Organization could have had no Principal, more helpful and cooperative in working for its success." #BPatriotProud
