    2. This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/an/TZ.2ADE/4929.1 Message Board Post: I attended Trumbull Center School on White Plains Rd from 1st grade thru 6th grade. 1958-1964. There was a fire house adjacent to the school playground and each day at noon they would test the siren at the station. I recall it being VERY loud. The school had a beautiful auditorium with a large stage... When there were air-raid drills we would all have to march down to the basement and line up in the halls which was suppose to protect us from "fall-out" if there was a real nuclear threat. The cafeteria was also in the basement. I have never known this school to have a different name, but since it was rather old already when I attended school there, then it is quite likely the name had been changed years before that. There was also a library on a small hill directly across the street from the school. Don't know if it is still there or not. I moved from CT to CA in 1973 and eventually Michigan. I have yet to go back to CT for a visit. We are planning a trip to Trumbull this September so I imagine a lot will have changed in the past 30+ years.
