Answer
Jim. graduated 1969. Location Bluff Springs township school. Brand new brick school. Called the 1957 school. 4 room school, with coal,wood heat, electric,and indoor plumbing. black top out back and stable. First threw 12. Before that we had a 2 room school. Reading writing arithmetic, science, history, was taught. You got up did your chores, cleaned up ate and went to school by boat or horse, sometimes by sled. Put your outer garments in the cloak room, guns had to be cased, and shells kept in a metal box at school. This meant I always had a older brother or younger sister in the same class as me. Big problem. Teacher told us what chapter in the books to read or what math to do. We had a study hour each day at school. If you had problems you had a older student help you. Or you helped a younger student. In study hour. So we were self taught in some ways. And had test every day on what we were to learn. We took our lunch to school and traded around. Kids who lived on the oil road came to school by car or bus. And they could not keep you after school if you lived more than a mile away. 7 mile by boat, 5 mile by horse to school for me. As you could take the dirt road there. Activities. Horse back riding,fishing,hunting, swimming,knife throwing,and what ever else we could find to do. There were not enough students of the same age for organized sports. clubs? I had several as I ran a trap line to school in the fall and winter. Text books. Short stories, and novels. for reading. book reports one every 2 weeks as the book mobil came every other week. Reading book, math book,history book, science book, were the main ones. Pencils paper,pens. They stood behind a desk up front. Told you what book, had a chalk bord behind them. and answered our questions and helped explain what we did not understand. We also had a shop class in the basement. wood working, electric,and general skills class. We looked foreword to school. As we did not have electric at home. Or indoor plumbing. We got that in 1969. Some of the last on rule electrification. If you rode a horse to school you had to provide your own hay and straw, and hand pump water from the well for it. Mothers back then taught there daughters to cook and house work. But many of them were fine wing shots as well. And all knew how to butcher. With knifes. So we treated the girls with considerable respect back then. And we looked foreword to going to school. They had indoor plumbing there and light bulbs. We had gas lamps at home and a outhouse. They also sent a nurse to school once a month to teach health and give us a look over. But she was a State employed.
