Allensville Elementary

When I went here, the building on the right was Vinton County Jr High. The other buildings were Allensville Elementary. Jr High building didn’t have a lunch room, if you bought lunch you walked to the elementary cafeteria. If you pack lunch you ate at the top of the bleachers where there were some tables in the gym. Basement always flooded and it was run down by the time I went there, but it was probably my favorite school.
