A local author is sharing what teachers and mothers dealt with during the great depression years of 1937 to 1940. The notes are said to be a tale of the times.
“These humble, heartfelt, and sometimes humorous notes have been cloistered away for more than 80 years,” a blurb about the book said. “Enjoy as well, the history of Miss Schneider’s life as pages of photographs and memorabilia guide you through the years. It was a lifetime ago. Their story has been waiting to be told.”
One story Mitchell recalled was her mother telling her about her third-grade boys, some of them ages 12 and 13, who were bigger than she was because they had to help their family make money. “She was tiny. She was only five foot two and 98 pounds soaking wet. And some of her third-grade students were bigger than she was because they had to, the boys had to work. They had to help out on the farm or in the family business. So they had to work and because they worked, they would miss school and they would not pass — so some of her third-grade students were 12, 13 years old, so they were big boys. And she always said that she made friends with the biggest boy in the class.
Ahead of Mother’s Day, and during Teacher’s Appreciation Week, Mitchell told News4JAX that teachers and mothers have always been a team when it came to raising children. “The stars of the book or the students, the kids,” Mitchell said. “The heroes of the books are the mothers and the influencer of the book is the teacher.”Play the video above to hear more from Mitchell’s interview with News4AJAX.
