Midway School Scrapbook This is a partial copy of the scrapbook; the actual book and schoolhouse are located at the Homesteaders Museum in Torrington, Wyoming. Ode to the Midway School Little old school house that sits by the road
We have such fond memories of you.
We started our school life within your walls. To your teachings we've tried to be true.
Our lives have taken us far from your door. Many times we've been lost in life's flow. We think back to our beginning with you When life was very easy and slow.
The things that we learned were simple and good
Reading, writing, figures, and to spell. Those things we have used In this life of ours, And we're glad that we learned them so well.
Yes, many students have passed through your door Some famous, some good, and some unknown. But all of them had their beginnings here, Your teachers started them on their own.
Romances sometimes began in your room.
Lonely cowboys came hoping to meet The girl who taught reading, writing and sums, Who might become a housewife so sweet.
We always remember our heritage, Honesty, faith, work, and to be true These principles we have kept all our lives. Yes, little old school house, we love you! Kathleen Hunter
