Back in the 50's, we went to school in the summer and when cotton was ready to pick, school let out because so many kids had to help on the farm. It could get very hot in the classrooms and we had one old loud fan in the front to move some air. Many of us went to school barefooted and in shorts to try to stay cool. When they changed the school year to start in late summer and go through the fall and winter, quite a few kids had to miss school to stay home and pick cotton.
The newer part of the school that was built in the early 50's had tile over concrete and on humid days would sweat. You could sure bust your butt on those floors.
