In 1918 the school was raised to what is known as "Class A" in the comparative rating of Nebraska high schools by the state university. 1919 it was placed a notch higher, being entered on the accredited list of the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. This makes the rating of the Bridgeport high school equal to the best in the state. A graduate of this institution can now enter practically any school in the country without examination unless it is a professional or technical college that requires one or more years of undergraduate college study as a prerequisite for entrance.

The high school faculty is composed of

the superintendent and four teachers, all possessing degrees from a four year college or university. F. S. Copeland of the University of Nebraska is superintendent, and director of the English department. Miss Florence R. Smith of the University of Denver is principal, and instructor in science and mathematics. Mrs. E. W. Tedd of the University of Nebraska is assistant principal, and also director of the departments of history and normal training. Mrs. W. F. Morrison of the Colorado State Teachers' College is director of the commercial department and also of girls' athletics. Miss Ledra Johnson of the Nebraska Wesleyan University is teacher of Latin and English, and has charge of the High School Girls' Glee Club. In addition to the regular members of the faculty, there is employed each year a dramatic coach to handle the annual declamatory contest. For the last two years Mrs. Ethel M. Copeland of the University of Nebraska has been employed in that capacity.
