Cramer School Dedication

These are some pictures taken September 21 at the dedication of the Cramer Chapel One-Room School, now located on the Stanton Historical Society campus.  The school was originally located southwest of Stanton in Page County.

More than 600 students attended the school from its construction in 1875 until it closed in 1959.  Several former students and teachers were present for the dedication, including the entire student body and faculty of the Stanton school.
