Photos date from 1922-1929. Original paper boards. 7 x 12 inches. 58 pages. Album from teacher who worked at Pearsall School 1922-23 Eddy School 1923-24 Baker School 1924-25 Country Farm School 1925-26 Dye School 1927-28 and Dorr School 1927-29. In addition to photos includes 32 pieces of ephemera including drawings invitations valentines and numerous press clippings with updates on the various schools. Most of the photos identify the school and include group photos of the children. These one-room schools had few pupils often under 20 in the entire school so teachers had to be prepared to instruct students at multiple levels. Many of the group photos show children in working clothes such as overalls and simple cotton dresses. In some photos it's clear that children are barefoot while others taken in cooler months show them bundled up in jackets and work boots. In addition to photos of students posing by their schools there are images of special presentations and students at leisure. One image shows the children all dressed in capes as part of a musical performance; another shows two students and the teacher riding bicycles on a sunny afternoon. There are 47 individual photos of students from Dorr and Loomis Schools with their first and last names handwritten below. One particularly striking image of a young boy Ronald Bishop comes with additional information on his fate: "Killed by car". Some photos identify community members such as "Nora and Hazel" and "Mr. Barnes" who appears to be a delivery person in his official cap and horse-drawn buggy. <br/><br/>Newspaper clippings on the various schools provide updates on the institutions and students' progress. "Hazel M. Hummel Teacher. Our school closed for vacation with Christmas program at the schoolhouse. After the program.the ladies ten treat dus to popcorn balls and candy which we enjoyed very much.
