These photographs were taken from a book that was created after Apollo Junior High opened, in 1969. A copy of this book was included in the school's first yearbook. The book has some pictures of our school the way it was when it opened.

This quote was taken from the book: “What we really seek in education is not knowledge, but the wonder, beauty, romance, and above all, the adventure of learning. The adventure of learning is essential to man because of his very nature”.

This was said by Fred Taylor Burns, who was the Superintendent of the Daviess County School System in 1969.

Apollo Junior High, which was designed for 900 students, was a total of $1,261,855.00 to build.
