The Good Old School Days
Picture
Former students of one-room schoolhouses — from left, Bernice Shultes Bunzey, who attended West

Recreating history: Re-enactor Toni Lasher, standing at rear left, is the schoolmarm at the Knox 
Historical Society’s final summer program, about life in a one-room schoolhouse, which took place on 
Sunday, Aug. 25. Here, she tells the children that two students often shared one wooden desk. They 
had to stand up carefully to avoid banging the seat against the desk behind them.
