Our poor old Providence Street School. A shredded flag and an open window allowing rain to damage its insides. Is that intentional? Why is the owner letting this beautiful icon rot away? 😡

From left to right: Jackie Garland (school annex secretary), Robert McKenna (principal), and Ann Patenaude, (secretary at Providence Street School).
Bob and his wife are still enjoying life in Rhode Island. Tragically, Jackie passed away after battling cancer at a young age and Ann, who will be 93 in April, is suffering from advanced Parkinson’s disease.
The three were great friends and their love of the students exemplified the spirit of the Old Providence Street School!

Does anyone still remember the smell of the old mimeograph machine outside the office--and the freshly mimeographed handouts?
