This book contains the early history of Warren Township High School from its beginnings as Gurnee's two-year high school. The two-year high school evolved first into a three-year township high school and finally into a four-year township high school in 1917. The book also includes an early history of Warren's sports teams, experiences of its students, and descriptions of life at Warren. There are also stories about no-table students, teachers, coaches, and prominent citizens in the area. If you are wondering why I named the book The Revised Early History of Warren Township High School, I'll explain. Originally, I only intended to write a history of Warren's football teams. While researching football, I occasionally ran across articles about the school's early history. I saved what I found and filed it away. Then the Warren Township Historical Society asked me to write an account of Warren football for their newsletter. While writing about the football team I decided to add all the other information about Warren's history that I found earlier, calling it the "Early History of Warren Township High School." Six months after writing the article, I noticed a couple of mistakes that needed correction and decided to do a more in-depth study of the high school's history. I ended up with enough Warren history that I was able to write this book and correct my mistakes as well.
