Rhodes Elementary to Observe Two anniversaries on April 24
A.S. Rhodes Elementary School on Strasburg Road marks its 56th building anniversary at Riverton and the 40th for a substantial addition. The Riverton campus, opened in 1936 as a four room brick school for grades one through seven, sparked county wide consolidation and a new era in Virginia school design. Built as a P W A project costing about 72000 dollars, it used 48800 borrowed from the Literary Fund, 5225 from county funds, and an 18000 P W A grant. Dedicated during Warren County’s Centennial, speakers included State Superintendent Dr Sidney B Hall.
