The Red Schoolhouse was used only ten years-a short life for a school building. It served, from 1924 until 1932, as a home for students who lived some distance from the school. Mr. and Mrs. Willis lived upstairs until the teacherage was built in 1931. The Class of 1924 was the last group of students to finish their schooling in the Red Schoolhouse. On Commencement Day, May 8, 1924, they went into the newly completed auditorium of the new brick building for graduation exercises. r 6 Ui
