School Days on Broad Street
Grace Zeigler Freed has submitted two photos today, one of which show the Broad Street School in Lansdale and the other which shows her and her classmates at the school.
She notes:
"I have good memories of this two-story school, where the first six years of my early education started.
"I remember walking the three blocks each morning from Chestnut Street, home for lunch and then back until about 3 p.m.
"The small store next to our playground was where we would stop and buy our penny candies after school hours.
"The photo here is of our class on the playground. Many of the class here moved to the junior high school on East Main Street, Lansdale, and graduated in 1945 from the senior high school on Penn Street, Lansdale.
"It would be interesting if anyone can identify themselves. I am the first one sitting at the end of the second row. I can name most of the class, but need help with naming others.
"Today, a gas station has taken our spot.
