Image Description:
Winter view showing heavy street and pedestrian traffic in front of the school house. On the sidewalk, men shovel snow, boys play, a man tethers his horse, and a cluster of girls walks to school. In the street, two boys with a sled try to hitch a ride at the rear of a moving horse-drawn sleigh and a man on horseback and another in a sleigh stop to talk to a boy and man interrupted from shoveling and sweeping snow. Sheds and smaller buildings, including one with a marker dated "1848" surround the main school building.  Sanford Culver, principal.
