U.S. School Clothes: Haddam Elementary School (Haddam, Kansas)


Figure 1.--Here is an elementary (primary) school in Haddam, Kansas. We assume that the name of the school is the Haddam Elementary School, although we are not possitive. We have a photograph of the school band during the 1940s. The school had a rather elaborate band for an elementary school. Note one of the boys is barefoot.

We have a photograph of the school band during the 1940s. The school had a rather elaborate band for an elementary school. Most highschools had school bands, but it was less common for elementary schools. I initially was looking primarily at the uniforms, but note the instruments the children have. We do not see any brass instruments--important for a marching band. The instruments are more like a rhythm band--despite the marching band uniform.
