THE POOL IS CLOSED

That kind of sign would be a wonderful sight for Professor Harold Hill to see. To the rest of us, it means summer is over. Young ‘uns goin’ back to school, including Amish children. No more bare feet. New tennis shoes, new lunch pail with thermos, the smell of new books, new friends to make, old friends to see, ahh. And a quieter house for parents. Some parents will find time to assist in the classroom at school. Amish parents do this too, taking pre-school age children with them.

The new Nickel Mines Amish school will be open for its second year.
