Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/TZ.2ADE/4929 Message Board Post: I want to say this is for Leslie. I found my book about Trumbull & it was published in 1997 (I think) from the Trumbull HIstorical Society. So I have been reading thru it-it is mainly pictures with stories under the pictures). I came across White Plains School upon flipping pages I found out the name was changed to Center School (not sure which year) but I do remember it as Center School (it was in the part of town called Trumbull Center & also on White Plains Road. Center School closed it's doors after the 1980 school year (I was in 3rd grade) & those students along with a few other schools that closed down went to the other elementary schools in town, mine being one of them. So there reallly was a White Plains School & there are some pictures in this book of the school & that school was later changed to Center School. It also said that the WPS annex was later part of the Trumbull Center Fire Dept. Which I can not remember if I have seen it as a young girl or in just pictures but that building burnt down (I want to say in the 1970's but I am not 100% sure). What stands now on the site of the school is a bank & office buildings. There is also a cemetary right next to it too. KErri
