That was then, this is now: Jefferson Elementary School, Warren Pennsylvania


Retiring Guy attended Jefferson from September 1957 to June 1962 -- 2nd through 6th grades.  During the late 1950s and early 1960s, the schoolyard served as a wiffle ball field for the neighborhood kids.  And there were a lot of us living on this block back then.

In the early 2000s, the Warren County School District consolidated the grade school in the City of Warren, opening an elementary center on the high school hill.  Some of the former schools were repurposed, others demolished to make way for new construction.  Jefferson, on the other hand, has been in a state of messy rehabilitation for the past 10 years.
