Photo - church and school

Here's another picture of Deep Creek School, this time the original building. It is the two pictures at the bottom of the set (Bruderheim Church is shown above). The school is shown front and back. Although a secular institution, it is interesting to note the cross. I believe the old school was replaced with the modern one in the mid forties.

My uncle taught there for five years. He was kicking around at the farm between jobs (trained, but unemployed) when the school's supervisor arrived at the front door asking for him, asking him to take the position. Apparently it all came as a bit of a surprise to my uncle. He took the gig and never looked back.
