EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, titled "RURAL SCHOOL, 1939", takes us back in time to the entrance of Lincoln Bench School near Ontario, Malheur County, Oregon. The image was skillfully captured by renowned photographer Dorothea Lange in October 1939 during a period marked by the Great Depression and the implementation of President Roosevelt's New Deal. The rustic charm of this rural school is evident as we observe its simple yet sturdy architecture. A bell tower stands proudly atop the building, symbolizing education's call to young minds. A group of children can be seen gathered outside the entrance gate, eagerly awaiting their daily dose of knowledge. Lange's lens beautifully captures not only the physical structure but also hints at what lies within those walls - hope for a brighter future through early education. This snapshot serves as a poignant reminder that even amidst challenging times, literacy and learning remain essential pillars for progress. As we delve deeper into this historical context, it becomes clear how crucial these rural schools were in providing educational opportunities to children who may have otherwise been left behind. The fence surrounding the schoolyard acts as both a protective barrier and an invitation to enter into a world where dreams are nurtured. Dorothea Lange's photograph transports us back to an era when education was valued greatly despite economic hardships. It serves as a testament to resilience and determination while reminding us that every child deserves access to quality schooling regardless of their circumstances or location.
