Before Duchess and I head out of here and get ready for Memorial weekend activities... we would love to leave you with this challenge that we are working at identifying in an old photo of Washington Elementary School pupils and their teacher. We have identified a few of the 1951/1952, December photo of Washington Elementary School students and teacher. If someone else out there remembers more and can fill in the remaining blanks, we would love to hear from you.
