Exterior view of a little rough board building built on Orange Grove Avenue just south of California Street. This schoolhouse was opened for its first session on January 28th, 1875. In the little one-room building under the friendly shade of a spreading oak tree, began the educational system of Pasadena. Around this little building was planted a grove of orange trees, which eventually, displaced the schoolhouse and the oak tree.
