fffislory of O School HE first school in Pardeeville was situated in the northern part of the village known as Canada Street. It was a frame building of one room requiring only one teacher. Onto this building an addition was later built making two rooms and requiring two teachers. In 1860-61 a new brick build- ing was also erected on Canada Street. This new building had two stories, one room in each story and required two teachers. A few years later an addition was made to be used as a primary room. This building was later sold to John Weldon who tore it down. In 1904, about twenty-four years ago, a high school was built in the south- eastern part of the village. It was a frame Structure of two stories, and its cost is estimated at twenty thousand dollars. All the rooms were not needed at that time so it was not completely finished until a year later. There were eight teachers at this time in both grades and high school, and as the school grew and new courses were entered the attic and basement room were used as class rooms. In 1922 a barracks was built. This barracks was used two and a half years as a school room, to make room in the original building for the increasing high school. i 9 }
