Walt Disney, 1898. Land for this building was donated in 1892
by Nickolas Kessler.

The open
house for this building was held Nov. 13, 1936 -- a little
over a year after the old school was demolished. It has seen
several additions and renovations over the years. It's notable
in this view that more than half of the original tall windows
have been covered over and/or removed.
