its present physical size and appearance. With the completion of these new sec- tions, the building contained 10 rooms. The first class to receive diplomas from this building was the class of 1884 and consisted of 12 graduates. Miss Emma Deeter, for whom the building was later named, taught the first grade here from 1882 until her retirement in 1928. 5 The Robison building, which is located at Seventh Street, was erected in 1892 as a six room building which was built to ac- commodate approximately l50 pupils. The cost of the building was 316,000. Due to modern expansion and an ever growing population several extra rooms were built. It now consists of 10 rooms and it supplies substantial room for 217 pupils from grades one through six. The faculty is comprised of 8 classroom teachers and a principal, Miss Allen. During the past year a new cafeteria was installed to further provide the students with more of the newer facilities now available. This building was named in honor of Miss Emma Robison, who taught here from 1900 to 1937.

l i 5 as In 1922 the members of the Sharpsville school board purchased grounds on Thirteenth Street where a portable building was built to provide room for students in grades one and two. This al- leviated the overcrowded situation at the Robison school on Seventh Street. These portable buildings served their pur- pose throughout the years until the school year of 1957-1958 when operational costs made it economically unsound to continue their use. They are now maintained by the school board as storage rooms for various school materials and equipment. The original Sharpsville High School was erected on Mercer Avenue in 1869. The ground needed for this purpose was donated by Mr. Pierce. This brick structure con- sisted ofthe four southeast rooms of the present Deeter School. The students of all twelve grades attended the building and it provided room for about 200 students. In 1876 and 1883 additions were built to the Deeter Schoolg thereby bringing it to 4 CUT O
