The Rocky Glen School, District 34, was built in 1896. (I will include an unedited image in the discussion area of a close up of the date on the front of the school) It is located between Elmdale and Cottonwood Falls in Chase County and is visible from Highway 50. I have no history on this old school, so I have no idea when it closed its doors. I was intrigued in the fact that the two out buildings at the sides of this school were in fact outhouses...one for boys and one for girls...Something I hadn't ever seen before. This was taken in the afternoon hours, so I decided to play with light and color as original image was underexposed. I will include the original of that as well... HAVE A GLORIOUS DAY!!

We have some old school houses around us but non this wonderful. No bells on ours. I do have a friend that lives in an old school house. Its pretty cool. Outstanding work Jeana girl, you really captured a great feel to this. I can almost see Laura Ingells walking up to it. At least that is what I think of. #8631004Kitty R. Rodehorst-Hanna May 23, 2010
