KMCS Memory Lane - below is the start of the website. It's not fancy, but it is free and functional. I didn't get as far as planned but wanted to get the progress shared. Check it out - be sure to follow the links to Kindergarten 1, Kindergarten 2, and Ditto Machine.

Currently the only pictures and documents are those from the museum or my personal scrapbooks. I hope once people see these pages, they'll also want to share photos/documents/memories to post. Where possible, please include the year, associated classroom, and names of people in information/photos you submit to [email protected].

Thanks!

As America celebrates the 250th Anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, Russell is gearing up for some events to commemorate the occasion.

First up are Historic Cemetery Walks - join us as we highlight the lives of Russell's Revolutionary War soldiers and tell the stories of other citizens buried here:
⭐️ Memorial Day, May 25th 2:00 PM at Balsam Cemetery (by the former Knox Memorial school)
⭐️ Flag Day, June 14th 2:00 PM North Russell Cemetery (near the intersection of the Canton-Russell Rd and the Dutton Rd)

Hope to see you there! More information about future events shown will be shared as the dates approach.

As we reach 40 years since the last class graduated from Knox Memorial Central School, we thought it would be interesting to take a “walk down memory lane” through the school starting with the Kindergarten through Elementary Principal’s Office corridor. Please submit stories/memories, scanned photos, or documents you would like to share to [email protected] or in a private facebook message. Please include the year, associated classroom, and names of people in information/photos you submit.
