School History Some time between 1847 and 1857 the original frame or log building was erected, situated mid-way on land belonging to the Harsh family and the John W. Smith family, with neighbors believed to have contributed the material and labor for the first school. The district then included a dozen farm homes. In the early 1870'a, the wooden building burned down and a brick structure was built in its of reading, waiting, arithmetic, United States history and geography. Pupils were not graded, nor were there distinct grades. Many older boys attended only from November through March and helped on the farms the other months. The simple school of those early days, with few furnishings or conveniences, resembled the homes of the time. A wood stove heated .the small room many years into .the twentieth century. Tax money collected by the land supervisors was divided between the thirteen school districts of McHenry township and the board of .trustees distributed ten to twenty-five dollars in October and April to small districts. After Flora Hamsh, mother of Jay and Kenneth Crbsty, left school there were no more Harsh children to attend. The Harsh name was gradually dropped and in the late 1870'a the school was named Harrison. The George Harrisons (had purchased the property of John W. Smith, including half of <the school land, in .the early '70's. This leads to the interesting story* of Mrs. Harrison's youngest son, the only student Nfirom March 1 to the season's end, and his older sister, the .teacher, in 1922. Daily attendance was required to fill the year's pay contract for Miss Harrison. Attendance varied from the one to twenty-odd pupils at times. Mare of the history of early days at Harrison school will appear in future (issues of the values, the individual's right to Plaimdealeh E I0cP«r Copf font Suffocates |n Farm Residence I Infant Bruce Bright, 8 months pld, died of suffocation on- his paments' farm south of Lakemoor on Wednesday morning, March 30.
