A Small School
Would you want to go to school in a national park? What if the park was the hottest and driest place in the USA? What if it was called Death Valley? Death Valley National Park is a beautiful but harsh desert. For five months a year, temperatures soar over 100°F. About 500 people live in Death Valley, and some work in the park. Many of the people are families with young children.
Death Valley Elementary School is down the road from the visitors’ center. The school is located on Old Ghost Road. In spite of the scary name, the school is a happy place. The building has two rooms, and it had 11 students in 2009. Most
of the students are kindergartners, and the oldest student is in 4th grade. One teacher and one assistant work with all of the students. Going to school in a place called Death Valley can be a good thing. In such a small school, each student gets a lot of attention.
