Description
“Constructed in 1929, the two-story, blond brick Union High School served as the first high school for the Westminster community. It functioned in that capacity from 1929 until 1949. In 1939, the school district constructed the gymnasium and classroom addition by taking advantage of Public Works Administration funding. The building is now
used as an alternative education center.” (www.historycolorado.org)
The Union High School building is currently part of a larger educational complex known as the Alternative Center of Education.
