Visiting Carrboro Graded School

Last week, third grade researchers visited the old Carrboro Graded School which is now Town Hall. Students learned that this school had not one, not two, but eight grades!  They also learned that class sizes could reach as high as 45 students per class and that the principal also taught 8th grade.  Students also learned about the beginnings of their school building back in 1958.  We are learning about Carrboro's history and thinking about how things have changed over time.
