This page has the links to the rural one room school houses around Elk City. It will be an on-going project and schools will be added as they are finished and as information is accumulated. The Board of Education in Independence as well as the Register of Deeds in Montgomery County, Independence were kind enough to let us copy the records they had in their posession.
Warren Culp, former Superintendent of Schools for Montgomery County spent over 2 years accumulating information on the school systems. Mr. Culp wrote the history of each school in Montgomery County as well as all the teachers that were hired and the pay they received. He also listed the board members where that information was available. We are very grateful to Mr. Culp for the time and all the infomation he accumulated that appear in the information contained here-in.
Other records and accounts that have been shared with us will be noted as such. The student records are far from complete, we have only what was available. We suppose many of the old records were kept by the teachers of that time period or perhaps are in someones attic.
