:Built in 1925 and dedicated on October 11th of that year, '''St. Barbara's Elementary School''' was located at 1515 [[Newburgh St.|Denison Ave.]] The elementary school of St. Barbara's served the Polish community by providing education for children from Kindergarten thru 8th grade. Kindergarten classes weren't offered until the mid-1940's.<br />
<br />
:The main entry way was in the center of the building and led up to the upper floor. There were also doors on the east and west sides of the building that allowed easy exit from the lower floor. There may also have been an exit on the south side of the school that led to the playground, but I don't recall ever using it so it may have been blocked off by the 1950's.<br />
<br />
:The upper floor had four classrooms with some grades doubling up when the class sizes were too small to warrant their own room. Also on this floor was the Principal's office and the nurse's room.<br />
<br />
:The lower floor not only had two classrooms, but also the lavatories, boiler room, and the church. Later, after the church was moved to it's new building on the corner of [[Petty St.|West 15th]] and [[Newburgh St.|Denison Ave.]], the church area was turned into a gym where the children could exercise, have lunch, and watch movies.<br />
<br />
:Each classroom had what was referred to as a "cloak room" where students could hang up their coats on hooks that ran along the wall. There was no such thing as individual lockers. The cloak room typically ran along the width of the room and had an entrance at each end.<br />
<br />
:The Sisters of Saint Joseph order served as teaching staff at the school. The nuns lived in the convent house located behind the school building. The convent was originally a wood frame house. Later it was moved to Botany Ave near West 14th St. and a new brick convent was constructed on the old lot on West 16th St.<br />
<br />
:When the [[Jennings Freeway]] construction carved up part of the neighborhood surrounding the school, enrollment dropped dramatically. By 1968, only 103 students had signed up. Regretfully, the school closed its doors for good after that school year due to economic reasons. Afterwards, the school building was torn down and the land paved and used as a parking lot.<br />
