1944 Vocational Homemaking classes

This item appeared in The Sutton News on June 1, 1944 describing changes to the Home Economical department to include "Vocational Homemaking" material.

Part of the plan was to remove the Home Ec department from the high school to "a separate cottage." Was this when the Cottage School began? And is this how it became named the "Cottage School?"

The Cottage School lived most of its lifetime as a school for elementary students in K-6 who lived north of the railroad tracks (or was School Creek the boundary?).  Inquiring minds wish to learn.
