Gardiner Consolidated

The Gardiner Consolidated school was built in 1919, dedicated in 1920, and closed in 1958 when the last 8th grade class graduated. The land was sold in 1964 and the building was essentially abandoned. It was used for a controlled burn as practice for local fire fighters on Christmas Eve, 2019, and fully torn down January 2020. In the second photo, circa 1940, Dewey Bradshaw was the bus driver and Joyce (Freestone) McClellan was in the back row wearing a beret. The first photo credit: The Perry News.
