Kensett ARK Public School 1910.
The Arkansas Democrat Gazette often runs old postcard pictures from Ray Hanley's collection. They are interesting, especially when they are near us. This one was on line a few days ago and is very interesting. Where was it located in Kensett AR? Perhaps a Searcy Sleuth will remember and let us know. One interesting thing was pointed out. It stated that the two teachers in the doorway (seeing how small they look in the doorway makes the building look MUCH larger) probably made the average salary which would have been $273 for 107 days of the school year.
It's a neat old building, isn't it? And how things have changed in only 110 years!
