Yes, the targets were achieved and exceeded our expectations. Greg's research, photos, interviews with former students, plus the data collected all combined to show the historic significance and retained the school's integrity. Having all the information recorded and pulled together in a report will be a plus for the society. It is a priceless documentation. The school looks essentially as it did during the period of significance in the area of our country's early education and now it is also recorded. The documentation collected can be presented to SHPO to prove our eligibility for the National Register of Historic Places. I believe we achieved those results because we had many; records, data, photos, alumni and the school was still located in it's original site (when it was built in 1894), with no major changes.
