Beaverton Grade School postcard

Description

Sepia-toned image of a two-story school building with a basement, front porch, bell tower, and dormer windows in the roof. A 'graded' school separated children into grades by age, rather than a one-room school where students were grouped according to where they were working in any particular curriculum.
