College Elementary School

The following list was first based upon:

YEARBOOK 1951-1952
Central Michigan College of Education Parent-Teacher Association College Elementary and Junior High School

However, as students went and came during the potentially eight years at College El, this list is bound to be inaccurate in many instances both in inclusions and in omissions as a record of the "graduating year," 1956.   I have taken the list of second graders in fall, 1951 and supposed them all in the sixth grade class of (spring) 1956.  Karen Veit has sent very helpful material.

Corrections are, as always, most welcome.
