Five of the teachers pictured at the 1958 dedication of a school addition taught at the Jefferson Village School for many years from 1935 into the 1960’s. From left are Mrs. Nancy Jones, Mrs. Laura Pierce, Mrs. Edna Parlin, Mrs. Alice Holmes, Mrs. Lillian Choate and Mrs. Helen Madden. Parlin began her teaching career in Jefferson as a young teacher at the one-room Trask School and later, at the Murphy School. It is quite a remarkable story.
