Scope and Content: Photograph of graduates of Burnaby North High School. A large group of over one hundred and fifty students are dressed in formal attire and posed inside a gymnasium during the graduation ceremony and dinner. The women appear to be wearing prom dresses while the men are dressed in suits. David Morgan is identified standing in the fifth row from the bottom, fifth from the left.

History: In 1922 the Burnaby North High School opened at its first permanent location (4375 Pandora Street - which is now Rosser Elementary). In 1945, the Willingdon Avenue site was built and was used until a new building was constructed in 1961 on Hammarskjold Drive. From 1962, the school was used as Burnaby Heights Junior High school, but it closed in 1982 and the junior high students went to the new Burnaby North on Hammarskjold.
