Jefferson Student Spread Christmas Cheer

Jefferson C-123 K-12 students loaded on buses and went caroling in the community. They caroled at the Benedictine Convent at Clyde, the Conception Abbey infirmary and made stops at senior citizens homes.  Each elementary student had a junior high or high school partner.  Retired teachers, school support staff, and community individuals gathered to supervise this activity as teachers held a professional development meeting.  Every student participated even those recently injured and on crutches. When the students returned to the school they were met by Santa with treats. 

 Jane Walter and Bob Fannon of the Community Action Renewal Team provided the music accompaniment.   Photos provided by Stacey Mattson, paraprofessional at Jefferson.  For more photos see Stacey’s FB page or Tri Meadows FB page.

Locating Rural School Sites.

Jane Walter and Jerry Eckstein have the opportunity of working with a group of Nodaway County citizens to locate sites of rural country and early city schools and to erect signs at each location. The Nodaway County Historical Society estimates there are 210 such sites in Nodaway County. Jane and Jerry are working to locate schools in Jefferson Township.

This project is made possible by the Gladys Richard Estate grant money. Margaret Kelley, Phyllis Schimming and Lorna From are the core committee members working with residents of the 15 townships in Nodaway County since February 2012. The group is working to pinpoint, flag, contact landowners and erect signs at the site where each school originally was located. These signs will be erected at a site agreeable with the land owners and the road right-of-way.

If you have any photos or information that you would be willing to share the Tri-C Museum at Clyde and the Nodaway County Historical Society would be very interested in that information. Photos are easily scanned for sharing.
