  • The title would be better as Ruston Academy 1954-1961. The school was still functional after Castro assumed power in 1959. The school was previously located in Vedado, from its founding in 1920 until it moved to this newly constructed building.
  • Approved with changes noted in comments by George Alexander
  • There will be an alumni reunion of this school on May 18-19, 2007 in Miami, FL USA. See www.RustonAcademy.org
  • This location is properly identified. Excellent picture. Please keep it permanently.
  • Date should be 1955-1961
  • I saw Ruston Academy listed in the top ten prep schools to go to to get in the college of your choice in a small article in Time Magazine in the fall of 1962 or spring of 1963. Ruston Academy was the third one listed. We will be holding a reunion November 7th to 9th, 2014, at the Marriott Hotel Miami Airport.
