The first school building in Redwood City was called Redwood City Grammar School (also known as the Redwood City Public School) which was opened in September 1895 and located on Broadway Street across from the courthouse. In the early years of the school, the first two floors of the building were dedicated to the elementary school and the third floor was occupied by Sequoia High School. Cloud became a teacher at Redwood City Grammar School, while working on his degree from Stanford University. == See also ==
