WHAT IS A CONSOLIDATED SCHOOL? By Shirley Bonsall
Ever wonder what the name “Nockamixon Consolidated School” on the Schoolhouse Apartments in Revere is all about?
In January 1930, the School Board of Nockamixon Township, governing eight one room schoolhouses, resolved to consolidate these schools into one. Some of this was due to pressure from the PA Department of Education to begin to consolidate the schools into a unified school district (ultimately Palisades School District) and to phase out the schoolhouses.
The eight schoolhouses within Nockamixon Twp were: Harrow (next to CVS), Revere (next to Veterans Park in Revere), Center Hill (across from the township bldg.), Lonely Cottage (Lonely Cottage Road), Traugers (Traugers Crossing Road – no longer standing), Seips (across from Palisades Middle School), Kintnersville (bottom of Kintner Hill Road) and the High School (next to Revere school/Veterans Park – no longer standing). Each township continued to manage its own school board until the 1950’s when the state mandated the next step in the consolidation process: combining all the schools into the newly established Palisades School District. Palisades High School was built in 1952.
At that same January 1930 meeting, the school board minutes reveal a purchase of 300 feet of road frontage on Easton Road in Revere from Leroy Walters and wife for $1,200 and a gift of an additional 300 feet from Dr. F.H. Grim, which was to be used as the school playground, was accepted.
According to a June 19, 1930 Ambler Gazette article, the district secured a bond for $31,000 and awarded Stoneback and Nase of Quakertown the general contract for $29,000. The school was to be built of brick, have 6 rooms in 2 stories, accommodate 59 students and 6 teachers, and designed to accommodate future expansion. And the article noted that “the board felt that pupils could be transported using a large truck and a sedan.”
According to Salome Trouts Zeltenoga (sadly, deceased), she started school in September 1930 at Harrow School. After the Christmas break, the children resumed the school year at the new Nockamixon Consolidated School, and all of the one room schoolhouses were closed. All of the one room schoolhouses were sold to the highest bidder in February of 1931 for a total of $3,600.
The Nockamixon Consolidated School continued to house classes into the late 1970’s. My brother went to Tinicum for 5th & 6th grades (1979-1981), then to Palisades High School. Durham Nockamixon Elementary School opened in 1981. My sister was in the first 5th grade class.
Sometime in the 1980’s the building was sold and became the Schoolhouse Apartments.
