Description
Class is in session today just as it has been for over 90 years at the Weavertown One Room School in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Life-size animated wax "scholars", surrounded by original blackboards and wooden desks, recreate a classroom atmosphere similar to that found in the one-room school system still used by the Old Order Amish.
Provenance
Photographs and slides donated by Discover Lancaster/Pennsylvania Dutch Country Visitors Bureau, June 2016.
