When Montandon Had A High School

1869 [1910] - 1959 (1978)

Located at the current site of the  Montandon Elementary school, this two story brick structure was built in 1869.  In 1958 the students were consolidated into the Milton High School with the last class graduating in 1959.  In 1978 the two story brick school was torn down, and the new Montandon Elementary School was built on the site in 1980.

The Sunbury American and Lewisburg Chronicle reported that the new school  house at Montandon was completed in March of 1869.

A blurb in the Miltonian in 1909 stated: 1906 - New $10,000 High School Building at Montandon dedicated .    Note that in 1869, they were raising $15,000 to build a new school..  My best guess is that the 1906 build was a renovation, and not a completely new building?
