EIGHTH GRADE COUNTRY SCHOOL GRADUATION
PICTURE TAKEN IN FRONT OF THE BAPTIST CHURCH IN WAYNE NE


Photo taken by Craven studios in Wayne

A special thank you goes to Dave Ewing and his morning coffee group for identifying this picture and to Donna Shufelt for obtaining and sending all the names. The picture is of the the Wayne Co. country school 8th grade graduation in 1922.

The country school kids all had to take a graduation examination before they could go to high school. Each of them is holding their 8th grade diploma. It was an annual tradition to take a picture of all of the graduates on the steps of the 1st Baptist Church at 4th and Main, Wayne.
