When I was in the town of Michigamme in the Upper Peninsula I came across this big old brick building. It was not hard to figure out what it was built for with the words MICHIGAMME PUBLIC SCHOOL across the top of it. The school opened in 1915, and graduated 15 students in its first year. From what I found on the internet, it closed in 1965, when declining enrollments forced the school to close. The towns students now attend high school in Republic.
