Renner School Room - Heritage Village in Dallas, TX

Enjoyed the morning at Dallas Heritage Village. The largest and finest collection of 19th century pioneer and Victorian homes/commercial buildings in Texas. These buildings, moved from throughout North Central Texas to Dallas’ first city park, line the tree-shaded 20-acre setting of Dallas Heritage Village. Was looking forward to standing inside the Renner School Room complete with original desks and wood plank chalk boards along walls. The guide sat quietly in corner of room reading a book. I had no questions but mentioned I couldn't help but wonder about the children. Their names and life journey following their schoolroom days. She walked me over to a wall I missed walking in, and pointed out two group photographs of the very children and school master.
