Specifications, reports, and general correspondence relating to the planning and construction of a new high school, which cost over half a million dollars to build and was one of the most modern and complete of its time. Most of the materials relate to a controversy with John P. Cullen, general contractor, over late completion of the building and his public charges of waste and fraud in construction. Most of the correspondence is between Cullen, Frank O. Holt, the Superintendent of Schools and Clerk of the Board of Education, and Van Ryn and De Gelleke, Milwaukee architects.
