I just talked with a person who works in the newspaper office in Cle Elum. She looked up the Ronald School. There was no reference to Jonesville having a school, but since they are so close the school you are asking about is probably the Ronald School. There was a record snowfall, in 36 hours 5 feet of snow fell in 1916. Later the same year, there was a fire destroying the original Ronald School which was built in 1890.
