Historic Delaware school in Oklahoma demolished
A school that was built for youth of the Delaware Tribe of Oklahoma has been demolished. Limestone Elementary School in Bartlesville was built in 1939. It was a one-room tribal school house that eventually became part of the public school system. "During World War II gasoline rationing prompted the use of the facility as a Delaware tribal church and home for the town's east side Sunday School classes," according to the Bartlesville school district. A bank will be going up at the site. Get the Story:
