Background

The 1950 edition of the Worthington High School “Cardinal” yearbook features photos of students, faculty, activities, sports, social events and candid snapshots. Ray Heischman was principal and Harold C. McCord was superintendent of Worthington schools, and the yearbook includes brief biographies for them both. The senior class has their individual portraits included, while grades nine through eleven are featured in small group photos staged around the school. Also included are short biographical paragraphs for each of the seniors.

In 1950, Worthington High School was housed in the Packard Annex, which had been built in 1916 and served as the high school until 1952 when a new school was built to accommodate the post-World War II population boom. Designed by Columbus architect Frank Packard, the Annex is the current site of the Peggy R. McConnell Arts Center.
