Good morning: I am sending you some food for thought.

This information is concerning our featured photo - Washburn graduation 1920


Washburn didn't really have a high school but a student could go on after
they graduated from the 8th grade until they had finished 12 years or so.
Some would go until they were 20 years old and then quit. And some would
graduate and then keep on going to school.

Last night I looked at the 1920 census and at the kids who were born around
1902 and who were listed as enrolled in school. I noticed that some who were
listed who had already graduated.

Also there are 3 boys in the photo and 1 of them we know who he is - so
there are only two left to identify.

But here are some of the people that I saw who were listed as in school:
