or 45 minutes on Feb. 15,
nobody used a computer in
Heather 7abrowski's class.
Instead, the Burton
Elementary School fourth-graders took
their turn in the Huntington Woods
school's model 1926 classroom. They
used copies of original textbooks from 75
years ago, sat at desks of that era and wore
clothes as close to that period as possible.
Each of the school's classes experienced
the 1926 classroom as part of the celebra-
tion of the school's 75th anniversary.
Part of the Berkley School District,
Burton has been located at the same site
on Scotia Drive for 75 years. ❑
