Ours was a new school, modern and wonderfully built with walnut paneling on the inside and Pewabic ceramic tiles on the outside.  It was my sister, twenty years younger than I am, who told me those details recently.  (I hadn't noticed when I attended school there.)  She also told me SHE had Miss Peele.  We tried to figure how old she was.  Now that I am a retired teacher, I realize Miss Peele was not so very old, after all, and I do appreciate her lessons.  I still sing songs we learned in her classes.  How about you?

Remember Mr. Ingersoll?  Was I the only 7th or 8th grader who had a crush on him?  Mr. Currie, our history teacher, had a colorful World War II background, but I don't know what it was. 

We had Girl Scout  day camps in Pitcher Woods.

We were the last class to go to Redford from Pitcher as Henry Ford opened its doors.  I seem to remember having a choice to finish my senior year there or continue at Redford.  My younger siblings all went to Henry Ford.
