Ada past and present - you know this scene

Pictured here is an Ada scene looking east on Grand Avenue.

The past photo shows the old Ada School building, which was built in 1929. At first, this building was exclusively for high school students, but in 1953, an elementary portion was added and the building became a K-12 learning environment.

In 1971, a new science wing and gymnasium was built, and a second gymnasium was added in 1987.

A bittersweet moment came in 2008 when the current K-12 building was completed and the old school was demolished, leaving the empty field that you can see today.
