| Description |
English: In the 1880s, Henry Yesler founded the lumber mill town of Yesler at the northeastern end of Lake Washington's Union Bay. Yesler School opened in the early 1890s. Before then, the town's school children walked to Latona School along the railroad tracks (now the Burke-Gilman Trail). After 1906, wealthier students from the new Laurelhurst neighborhood also went to Yesler School.
This photo shows a group of students sitting at their desks at Yesler School, sometime in the early 1900s. Several teachers stand behind them. The high ceilings, slate blackboards, and rows of cast iron desks were very common in classrooms throughout the country for many years. Yesler School was near the intersection of Thirty-sixth Avenue NE and NE Forty-seventh Street in Seattle. It closed in 1918.
