1890 Windermere School | Armstrong-Parramore House

 

Today I visited the 1890 Windermere School, located at 113 West Seventh Avenue in my town of Windermere, Florida.  For a few years it was a school, then it became a community center. Finally, in 1995 it was donated to the community. It is on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places.

Looking in through the windows I saw little chalkboards, a seat for the teacher, a big chalkboard, and a class picture.

My favorite part of the visit was ringing the school bell you can see just in the background. There was also an orange grove that is still there with 10-foot orange trees with oranges 10 feet up. I also visited an outhouse and saw the toilet inside.
