Leskard schoolhouse renovates before fall term returns
The Leskard schoolhouse has been repainted inside and out for a fresh start to the fall term. The flagpole was taken down for repainting and will be shortened before re-erecting at the schoolyard. The pole dates from 1898 or 1899 and originated from a prize Union Jack given after Sophie Trull’s essay victory. A former Leskard student, Sam Robbins, visited from Grand Forks after 46 years, recalling the town’s past with mills, churches, and schools and noting Leskard’s growth since his youth.
