My 4th Grade class picture. Newby School in Speedway, Indiana. This was the entire 4th grade. The Speedway school system had no buses so we walked to school every day. No 'parent's dropping us off" stuff. When you got to 5th grade you could get a bike permit and ride your bike to school. They used to let us leave school during lunch (unsupervised) and walk to the local Burger Chef and eat.
I'm second from the left in the 2nd row...
