Scope and content
Workmen are completing a large, open activity room at the new Brown's Point School. Clerestory lighting has been provided on both sides of the open-beamed ceiling. Controvery over whether or not to have a separate school at Brown's Point had continued over the years since a school first opened in a portable in 1918. That school was closed in 1924 but reopened again that same year for grades one through five. In 1938 the school was closed and remained closed 13 years until this new facility was built. The school reopened for the 1952-53 school year. (For the Record, Winnifred L Olsen)
