circa: 1886

Students at Pleasant Vale in front of the school. Note the steps come down the side. Teacher is unidentified as are most of the students. The tall boy to the teacher's left is John Humphreys, Jr., Max Yancey is the boy with the fancy hat, front row. This is looking west toward the building. The steps were changed to come down the front about 1890. School districts were very small because all the students had to walk or ride wagons or horses to school, no buses.
