Description
Undated photograph of Winship Elementary School.
Winship Elementary, located at 1412 Fifth Avenue north, was built in 1903. The name came from the founder/editor of the Grand Forks Herald, George B. Winship, who was also a longtime supporter of the school system.
After only three years of being open a fire destroyed the school, but was rebuilt and opened again in 1895.
Shows the original building with a new addition added to front of school and two exterior stairs for fire escape located on left side of school building. There is also a bike rake full of students bicycles' out in front of left side of building.
