1924 - 1925 Prairie Rose School

1924-1925 – Teacher - Irma Combs (from Bird City)
  1. Dorothy Ritchey
  2. Marlin Ritchey
  3. Tom Ricthey
  4. Alice Crabtree – 6th grade
  5. Ethel Crabtree
  6. Lloyd Crabtree
  7. Elna MacDonald
  8. Henry MacDonald

Memories: This was the last year in the OLD schoolhouse. Lloyd started to school, but didn’t go all the time, or maybe it was that he was kind of little and the teacher didn’t push him much. He actually was in the first grade the next year in the new schoolhouse.

The MacDonald’s lived at Mrs. Boyd’s place one mile north of the school. The children in that family were Edna, Henry, Pearl, Ila and Dorothy, but only Edna came to school that year.
