School is back in session


This is an Amish one room schoolhouse.  The Amish children start school in late August with a few weeks off for harvest in September/October.  They will go to this school until they finish the 8th grade at which time they quit school and either go to work or learn a trade.

After the Nickel Mine shootings on October 2, 2006 all the schools installed fences.  At first they were locked up tight but it looks like they have become relaxed a little again.
