School on the Move




It's one thing to be a university on the edge; it's quite another thing to be a school up in the air. Driving out in the country I spotted this schoolhouse, the Farmington Township school in Lake County, SD, that was up on blocks, ready to be moved from the site it's been for decades. Thing is, I think this school is where my grandmother, Mary Kehrwald (before she was married), was a teacher. So says my aunt and my mom. It hasn't been a school for a long time, but it did serve many years as the township hall, and the old records are just as much in the air as the school itself is. No indications on where it's going. I hope it finds a good home.
