[Vision2020] Vote the Kids Out of town!!

[lfalen]

I like your post and it is very similar to how i went to school for real. It was a one room school house. We rode to school on horseback. There was no power, so we used gas lamps. Since there was too much snow in the winter, we went to school for 8 months in the summer. This was 55 miles on a dirt road from the closest town. There were only 6 kids in the school.
