Built in 1929, Little Miss school welcomed the rank, year after year, thirty students divided into two classes. Large (fifth to eighth) were high that the space had been reduced by one third for housing insitutrices. Small (of the preparation for the fourth year) généralaement more occupied the bottom floor.
In 1953 the falling birth rate is already being felt we reversed the occupation of premises, small top and big bottom. By 1956 it had even closed up to accommodate everyone in one class to the first floor.
The building, which was our p'tite school, was acquired by Florian Lemaire rank of Ste-Genevieve, where he was transported. "
" This school , says Pierrette Leclerc, was purchased by Florian Lemaire, son of Alfred of Rang Ste-Genevieve. He was married to Aline Lemaire, deceased and sister of Denis and Real, priests (I think your cousins). This school has become a nice pig for pig
(in Quebec, "a pigsty). I hope they have learned to read ... before "grunt" .
My father attended the first school built in the same place but now transformed into a hangar at Ernest Allard. This school was built in 1929 was attended by her fourteen children. Lisa, the last in 1959 had to complete his elementary school (Grade 7) at the village school. Lisa was the only family to "take advantage" of school transportation. A new era had emerged.
