Two Hendersons and “Family” School


     This little white-painted school house, appropriately named White school, has seen two generations of Hendersons. Mr. Jay Henderson, Jayne, and sisters, Gloria and Becky, are all graduates. Eight year-old Richard Henderson is the 18 student school’s only second grader.

     The commencement address was delivered by Robert Van Raalte, assistant superintendent of the State Department of Public Instruction, and Miss Blanche Losinski, county schools superintendent, gave out diplomas.
     For their class trip, the three White and the Verona school graduates will tour Milwaukee. Mr. Henderson, a driver for Badger Coaches, will take them, and Mrs. Bertha May Henderson will chaperon.

Jayne, who admitted to being "a little nervous" before the ceremony, said she wasn't glad it was over. "I'd like to do it all over again."
