The little school house at Island Lake and N. Territorial Rds., two miles west of North Lake, is being remodeled and painted for its 80th birthday this fall. Archives of the Chelsea Board of Education may hold some official designation for this rural school, but the memories and hearts of northwest Washtenaw county know it by one name only - Pumpkin College. Applying fresh paint is Charles Cameron of Chelsea.

Pupils of the Sutton school in Northfield township decided this winter they needed more than theory in their social and science studies, so, with the aid of their teacher, Gertrude A. Doorn, they have built up the model farm yard shown above. And to make it more realistic, Norene Denune, shown at the right, has brought in a pen of live baby chicks. Other pupils shown above are Esther Maulbetsch, left, a first grader; Harry Clement, jr., a second grader, and Ernest Honke, an eighth grader. All children in the school worked on the project.
