Small Town School

Small Town School is presented in three parts. Part One describes teaching both in the US, in Vermont, and in the small-town of Wilmington, Vermont during the 19th and early 20th centuries. Part Two describes the four major construction projects of Wilmington's Central/High School: 1899, 1930, 1955, and 1981. Part Three describes the history of various school-related experiences of Wilmington's students: health and well-being, sports, transportation, technology, traditions, student activities, fundraising, and field trips. Having taught in the school for 32 years, author Larsen intersperses personal reminiscences and observations throughout the book.
