(Feb. 25, 2010) — The Leader of The week: Lyndhurst Historical Society

The Lyndhurst Historical Society’s efforts to keep the Little Red Schoolhouse an important part of the town’s history was documented last week by Reporter Jennifer Vazquez. The work of Sylvia Kleff and others at the Historical Society should inspire us all not only to treasure the past, but learn from it as well. The lessons of history are on display at the Little Red Schoolhouse, but those lessons would be lost forever if it weren’t for the heartfelt preservation of so many volunteers. Young students today can see what it was like so many years ago, when the surroundings may have looked different, but the quality of education was still the same. Kleff and the Historical Society should be championed for their dedication to our memories.
