Mountaindale School

Title

Mountaindale School

Description

Sepia-toned image of a group of school children gathered in front of their school. Mountaindale was located northwest of what is now North Plains, and the school was founded in 1868. The building in this image was built in 1885, and in use until 1953, when the district was folded into the North Plains [then Glencoe] District. Fifty different students were listed as attending at some point during the 1937-1938 school year, though only about half that many appear in this image. Their teacher was identified only as 'Sooker.' See WCMpic_013012 for another image of the students from this school, also taken in the mid-1930s.
