    This is the Hallway leading from the (former) lunchroom. This was actually one of my favorite places in the school. As a member of the Safety Patrol we got to take a stroll down this special corridor on cold mornings to get a cup of Hot Chocolate. It also has been kept in fine condition. What was different about this corridor is the two large double entrance/exit doors to the right in the photo, about 1/2 way to the exterior exit to the schoolyard. Actually, it was not until I saw this photo, that I remembered exactly how to get to the Gym. Again, thanks to Nancy Uhle '67 for these great photos! -ms that I know we all remember. Now, as Nancy presents to us, it is the artroom. One has to really think back to reassemble the room as it stood 40 or 50 years ago. Can you help? I remember the windows and the bright light coming into this, otherwise darker area. I remember specifically eating lunch on long heavy wooden tables and benches, seated with other classmates. The Safety Patrol got to drink Hot Chocolate on colder mornings and provided to us by wonderful volunteers such as Mrs. Mildred Boyle as well as many others. Thank you! Michael Stevenson
