The first recorded school sessions (1899) were in School No. 2, taught by Maggie Walker from July 10 to September 22, and School No. 3, taught from July 13 to September 8, by Alida Olson, who also taught School No. 1, from September 11 to November 13. Each teacher received $35 per month. The student's ages ranged from 6 to 19, and they were placed in classes of A, B, C, or D, according to their school backgrounds.
In later years the numbers beside some of the listings reflect progress in the course rather than grade level. School attendance for most was good, but for others quite sporadic. One lad probably set the record with only half day attendance. However, others would attend another school in the district if school wasn't in session at their home school.
The McGuffey readers were used and there was "wrighting on slates." Summer and fall sessions were the most common. Some teacher comments on the final reports were that Jennie Sloan said the apparatus was "good - what there is of it;" Alvena Thiede wrote "it would be well to have the grass mowed;" Mary Peterson said "number of books in library - none;" and Fern Broch's comment for needs was simply "books;" but Lottie Posey's School No. 3, did have "four library books."
In 1907, Lottie taught two sessions of 25 students from April 22 to June 28, and from July 8 to November 15, for which she received $40 per month. In 1913, Esther Thomas' final report said "needs a new schoolhouse." Apparently the people of the district heeded her advice for the following fall, all rural students were educated in the new building in Glenfield beginning the Consolidated School District.
