Description
Dr. Alexander Stoddard, new superintendent of schools, and Mrs. Bertha Norton, teacher, look over the first group of children enrolled in kindergarten at Fremont School on September 13, 1948. "Going back to school is a thrilling experience," said Dr. Stoddard. Many students, however, were turned away in the crowded school district.
