| Sunny Hill School 1924 Posted by: Webmaster (See more photos from Webmaster) Schools 2007/8/26 18:11 Views: 4877 Comments: 0
This is a picture of Sunny Hill School taken in 1924. It was located on the Okey Chapman farm along the Big Pigeon Road in Roane County near Amma. The photograph shows the students of the Sunny Hill School and other children who came to participate in the activities leading up to the annual community dinner.
The flags were provided by my father, Floyd Gibson who also arranged the parade maneuvers that were a part of the activities. Being a patriotic occasion, the large flag held by Mr. Gibson was the focal point of all the maneuvers. Regardless of how complex the maneuver, everyone had to be facing the flag at the end.
Teachers during this time period were Hugh Caldwell, Ina Phillips, Ora Engle, Irene Carper, and Maxine Carper. I especially remember Irene and how she encouraged a student to perform well by awarding premiums. The premiums were nothing more than pieces of paper she had made up but when we had accumulated five of these we could turn them in for a new pencil or a "Big Chief" tablet.
Later a new school was built across the road on the McCune farm but the community dinner was still held on the Chapman property in a large pine grove. The "new" Sunny Hill school was torn down many years ago.
Photo ID: Front Row - Floyd Gibson, Edith (Gibson) Inman, Mabel (McCune) Harrah, Edna (Chapman) Browning, Perry Gibson, Sally (Chapman) Basham, Stella Drake, Pershing Drake, Geneva (Drennen) Drake, Guy Chapman.
Middle Row - Lottie Drake, Verna (Nida) Critchfield, Ona (Chapman) Saunders, Katherine (Salisbury) Short, Opal (Carper) Cottrill, Hazel (Chapman) Samples, Virginia Drake.
Back Row - William Gibson, Pat Chapman, Clayton Drake, Jonah B. Drake, Cecil Geary, Tommy Salisbury.
s/William V. Gibson (date unknown)
Thanks to Gayle Hamilton for submitting this photo and information with permission to post it on our website.
The "new" Sunny Hill School was the first school that I attended in 1935 and the teacher was my mother, Ruby (Looney) Nida. Jack Nida 2001
