This building, now used as the Parks Senior Citizens Center, was constructed by the Works Progress Administration. Classes were first held there on 7 September 1940. The building has new fixtures throughout, including movable chairs and modern type desks for teachers. Lumber for the edge grain pine floors was milled within 12 miles of the building. All walls are sealed with knotty pine, are shellaced and varnished.
Ceilings are of one half inch fiber board.
The heating system consists of eight new coal stoves, and sufficient fuel has already been provided. School history contributed by Delaine Edwards . Photo provided by Charlene Holland . Copyright 2000 by Delaine Edwards and the submitter. All rights reserved.
