Fernhill School #53

Title

Fernhill School #53

Description

Sepia-toned image of a group of students standing on the front steps of their school with their teacher, Mr. Kalsch. Fernhill school was located south of Forest Grove and Cornelius, and listed 40 students for this school year, 1936-1937. There were many reasons students would not attend throughout the year, especially children of farm families, as most of the students here no doubt were. Compulsory laws at this time required students to complete elementary school, which generally included 1st through 8th grades.
