Mr Swideen was still the Principal. I remember Miss Player, she had a gold 4 door Chevelle. I had Miss Olson for either 3rd grade or 4th, Mrs. Wilkerson was 5th grade, and Mr. Tiede was my 6th grade teacher. Of course I had Mr. Anderson for P.E. Interestingly my father also went to B.F. Day, and my grandfather took adult education classes there in the 20's. I attended between 1962 and 1969. Mr Swideen was still the Principal. I remember Miss Player, she had a gold 4 door Chevelle.

The principal was Mr. Swideen. I had some very good and inspiring teachers there: 2nd grade - Miss Player 3rd grade - Miss Olsen 5th grade - Mr. Hovis 6th grade - Mrs. Wilkerson My apologies to those I've forgotten. Would love to see photos of the north end of the school and the upper playground. I really do enjoy your site. Thanks. I attended B.F. Day 1953-58 give or take. It was a great school.

Well, I do. Almost all of them anyway. Two Catholic elementary schools Cleveland, Ohio barely that memorable. Two public elementary schools in Chicago one of which was not bad and probably had some distinct early 1900s stuff all covered up now. A Chicago Catholic high school memorable but not distinct. LOL.
