A Polaroid photograph of the former Tocsin Graded School on the west side of County Road 600E just north of the small town of Tocsin in rural Wells County, Indiana. This is one of the early multi-room schools, a two story building with several classrooms, but built in the same architectural style as many one-room schoolhouses. Built in 1908, it is actually a little older than some of the one room schools I have photographed in rural Indiana.
The gable stone above the door says: "1908, Tocsin Graded School, District Number 10, J.V. Coshorn - Trustee."
The Tocsin School is now a private residence.
