This looks similar to the school at Coneville where I went for 1st and 2nd grade. The set up was the same 2 rooms like this 1-3 in one and 4-6 in the other. Thank you for the jog in memories.

Similar to the Wrights School, once a 1-8 Grade School. For high school kids could go to the town school, under a tuition deal between the township school board and the borough school board, finding their own transportation. My dad hopped the train in the morning, often hitchhiked and walked home. He had to drop out at age 14 in 10th grade, to help keep the family farm afloat while the Great Depression was defeating farmers and farms were falling into the Land Bank. Many country kids, especially boys, did not finish high school. But my dad's eighth grade diploma is a thing of wonder. It is amazing how much those kids had to master. Eighth Grade Graduation could be quite an event. My dad continued his education in various ways throughout his life, went to night classes. learned Spanish and touch typing, was an excellent musician, had a fine grasp of mechanics, building construction and animal husbandry and soil science. He invented a treatment for "hardware" (ingestion of small metal fragments by cattle) adopted by veterinarians, introduced new pasture and hay methods such as use of birdsfoot trefoil, founded the Metropolitan Milk Marketing Association. He knew more history and geography and civics than most high school grads of today, and kept up with change by reading TIME, Kiplingers and Readers Digest, along with farm magazines.

After he married, my dad was a tenant farmer near Sharon Center, on the Wildcat, with Wes and Litey Sargent the owners. (Wesley and Thankful Delight Sargent.) Then he bought the buildings (a former lumber camp comverted to a house, a small, low barn, a chicken coop and a privy) and fifty acres from the Land Bank. Eked out a living on the railroad section and construction and road work and digging graves and selling firewood and working at the new glass plant, Pittsburgh Corning, in the "hot end." Seemed he knew almost everyone in Mckean and Potter Counties!

My mom walked to and from school from Stickles Hollow to Smethport on more days then not. If she was lucky she could catch a ride with her uncle when he went to the creamery. The kids now days think they have it tough.
