School Attendance Records - Elk
Run School - 1891-1900
In October 2009 I obtained from one of the local attics five school
attendance books of Sullivan Township. They are Red School, Elk Run School,
Hulslander School, Clark School and Scouten Hill School. These are
particularly valuable because they cover that era of the missing 1890 census
and may identify children who fell between the census years. The books
include the names and ages of the students, the teacher's receipt for pay,
lists of books used in the school, visitors, and various statistics that
were eventually consolidated at the township, count and state level for
publication in the Pennsylvania Superintendent of Schools Annual. As I
process this informaiton I will include it on the site, starting with Red
School.
From early times until 1892 a summer term was held for younger children
and a winter term for the older children. Some of middle age may have attended
both sessions. Teacher contracts were by the term. In 1893, the winter
term was extended and a summer term eliminated. All children, regardless
of age, went to the winter term school.
