KELLERTON SCHOOL

Kellerton's second school was constructed of brick at a cost of $4,600. It opened on December 16, 1895. On March 9, 1902, a bond was passed to construct an addition (pictured above) to the second school. It was built at a cost of $2,300 by W. H. SIPLE and A. A. PEASLY. The building, measuring 24 x 48 feet, was put into use after Thanksgiving of 1902, and served the community until a new brick school house was erected in 1915.
