Caroline Elementary School celebrated its 50th anniversary last Friday. The school was full of parents and students celebrating the half-century mark.
Town of Dryden students go all over the place for school - the Dryden schools are the largest chunk, followed by the Ithaca schools, with Groton, Cortland, and Lansing districts all having a piece.
In the Dryden part of Ithaca district, most students go to Caroline Elementary School. Bethel Grove, Snyder Hill, and Ellis Hollow students have been going there for decades, and Varna students moved there in 2005. Our house is on the boundary on the Ithaca and Dryden districts, but on the Ithaca side, so Caroline is likely where Sungiva will go to school.

They had a DJ in the gym, and food in the cafeteria, with slides showing the world in 1959. The school had all kinds of student creations on the walls, looking at different aspects of 1959.

For a lot more pictures, of the celebration and the school, I've posted a gallery of photos.
