ORIGINS

I grew up in a small Ohio town and I rode the school bus from 1st through 12th grades. My bus ride always included a country road on which every school day we saw a one-room brick school house. (SW corner of Stine Rd and Enon-Xenia Pike). As the years went by I watched this wonderful, familiar friend fall apart. After I married the school really began to deteriorate. Every time we visited the area I would want to take a photo of the school but never did. Finally, when we went specifically for the task, the school was gone. It was a huge loss for me and, since that time, whenever we pass a one-room school it is a joy to stop to take a picture or two. Thus, our collection here and the blog with schools in other states.

Where Are the Students Now?

This comic was shown to us today at a 1-room school presentation titled, "Most Everything I Need to Know About Life I Learned in a One Room School," put on by Hills Bank in Hills, IA.  It was a very interesting presentation, and I just had to request this comic be sent to us for posting here!  Unfortunately, this blog will not allow a larger view without it stretching to the far right side overlapping the right column!  BUT, you can click on the comic to enlarge it.  I promise you, it's worth it!
