The photo is of Possum Walk School in 1989. After the school was no longer utilized as a school, it served as a small barn housing animals and storage for hay. The lean to at the side of the building was a later addition.The era was loosely called the 'dirty thirties' because there was a national depression. Blanche is a young lady with a two-year teaching certificate. She is ready for her first job and prepared to teach at the elementary grade level. However, she discovers a tight job market and takes temporary employment until an unexpected teaching opportunity is presented. Though it isn’t what she anticipated or hoped for, she gratefully accepts, never doubting that as a teacher she has much to teach the children. In the days ahead, she becomes aware that her perceptions of what she would give the children were not entirely realistic, for the children of Possum Walk School had much to teach their teacher.
