My grandmother wrote to my mother years ago that she attended North Oakland Elementary School. Her mother left husband and children when my grandmother was a youngster. Her father couldn't care for her, so the story goes, so he placed her in a boarding school or school-like facility. She would have attended this school sometime in the early 1890's. Does anyone have any information about this school, what kind of an institution is was, where it was located and if it still exists? Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.
