Logan City School District (Logan, Utah)

Logan was one of the first cities in Utah to form a school district by consolidating LDS ward districts in 1872. A board of trustees was formed consisting of Charles Card, Alvin Crocket, Robert Davidson, and Charles C. Hurst as secretary and Treasurer. In 1893, the Board of Education of the City of Logan was elected, with Seth A. Laughton president, Richard Yeates vice-president, Christian Larsen clerk, and William Edwards treasurer. By the 1920s, the individual schools represented by the Logan City School District were Benson School, Whittier School, Wilson School, Woodruff School, Ellis School Webster School, Logan Junior High School and Logan High School. In 1928, the Logan Kindergarten Association was formed to provide kindergarten services until the Board of Education could incorporate kindergartens into the Public School System. The original officers were Rebecca E. Stewart president, Edith Bowen vice-president, Beatrice Q. Smith secretary and treasurer. In 1935, the Board of Education created two kindergartens: one at Benson School and one at Woodruff School.
