Putnam #?, Roger's Grove School

Proceed east out of Ely on Banner Valley Rd to Roger’s Grove Rd and turn north.  Continue north on Roger’s Grove Rd for about 2 miles to Ivanhoe Road.  At Ivanhoe turn east and proceed about 3/4 mile to Old School Rd, which is only on the north side and is a dead end road.  The school was on the NW corner;  all that is left of the school is the foundation, and the rubble which has collapsed into it.

(This link has a photo of this school in 1981)

This first photo was taken from the road intersection.
After climbing up the hill, we were able to photograph the foundation from looking over the fence.
Walking along the roadside a bit further north, this shot abeam the north end of the foundation is looking WSW.
Climbing up to the fence gives a closer view, looking SSW.
Walking a bit further north, we can see the north end of the foundation.
Here is the north side of the foundation.
One last shot from farther north on Old School road, looking south.

Photographed on 4/5/15

The following photo, taken in 1981, was provided by Barb Horak:
