Description

The Civil Works Administration (C.W.A.) provided funds and labor to conduct repair and improvement work to multiple schools in Peacham, Vermont. “Work has been done on the Ewell’s, South Peacham, East Hill and Penny Street Schools. All labor was paid for by the United States Government and one-third of the cost of materials was paid by the State Government. It seemed to be too good an investment to be wasted; repairs and improvements have been made which would have cost many times the same amount later.”
