-------------------------------------------------- Email: AliciaOtenbreit Web Page: Comments: Hi, I love this section. My dad went to a one-room schoolhouseuntil it shut down in the 1960s. The name of his school was GelowitzSchool, and it was in the Grayson district. He has told me severalstories about it and it makes me wish that I had been a student at a one-room schoolhouse. His teacher, Mrs. Leona Dean (nee Ottenbreit), was theteacher of his school, and I was lucky enough to have her as my Grade 1and 2 teacher in Grayson School, shortly before her retirement.

-------------------------------------------------- Email: Dan LavalleePlace BRAEVAL SCHOOL I attended Braeval School in the Meadow Lake District from 1957 to 1964 and thoroughly enjoyed the experience! We had Grades 1 to 8 (with only 5-6 grades functional at any one time) with one teacher. Elly Ward was the teacher for years and ruled with both an iron fist (for the older boys who wanted to be farming) and with care (for those looong recesses when the whole school was playing ball). There was a barn on the property and that afforded us an extra playground, although technically forbidden. We had a coal furnace and there were many mornings when we had our mittens on for a long time while the furnace heated up the school. I have stories almost too numerous to mention regarding this unique experience.Are there any other folks who attended that are reading this?Send me an e-mail...... Dan Lavallee Love your site!!!!! -------------------------------------------------- Email: Lillian Kelly Place GLEN ADELAIDE SCHOOL Hi There May name is Lillian Thompson Kelly Gross and I attended Glen Adelaide school from 1955 to 1960 The school is outside of Wawota

I attended a one room school house Hudmore School it was in the Arcola School District on Highway 13 between Froude and Stoughton. I attended grade 1-3.
Also I was curious about a school I think the correct name was O'Brien not sure of the spelling it was a short distance from Stoughton SK. My Mom Ellen Armstrong taught there prior to marrying my fatherWilliam Mitchell, it would have been 1935-36.
She also taught at Wood Mountain her first school upon graduating from normal school.
I would be interested in anyone who remembers these schools.
Shirley Kulchyski -------------------------------------------------- Name: ? School Place :near Woodlight/Fort Pelly, Saskatchewan Email: Charlotte Pakulak,Duncan, BC. We have a photo of a schoolhouse that belonged to William Pakulak and his wife Mary Woloschuk Pakulak, both of whom were raised in pioneer families of Saskatchewan, near Fort Pelly and Sturgis (Preeceville, . Both are long gone, and no one of their generation remains. We can’t date or decisively identify the photo, but we do have some idea of the possible name of the school/school district. Woodlight / Fort Pelly Saskatchewan schoolhouse. We would love to have this one added [to the gallery of pictures]. We think it is most likely the photo is the school attended by Mr. Pakulak, as his wife is known to have seldom if ever attended school. However, her siblings did attend school, so the photo could also have belonged to her. If nothing else turns up to narrow it down, the photo can at least be described as belonging to families that farmed near Fort Pelly and Woodlight but could be from other nearby school districts. Charlotte Pakulak,Duncan, BC. If anyone has any clues as to this school house, teacher and pupils, please E-mail Julia, ORSH Webmaster
