Scudder Ave School – In 1950 the town needed more room in the over crowed School on Great Neck Road which lead them to lease a building not too far away originally built as a factory but never was used as one. The Annex building later became called Scudder Ave School. The school had 22 room with cement floors and beaverboard walls. In 1954 a brick structure was added to the school property and later expanded to include a gym and cafeteria. As the population decreased the Scudder Ave school was not needed and closed in 1979. How many years was the school open?
