Keith Graham
About the Artist
Keith Graham, along with his co-author, Neil Chaput de Saintonge, documented one-room schoolhouses for his upcoming book, Chasing Time: Last of the Active One-Room Schools in Montana. It will be published in November of 2017.
About this photo, Keith says, “The photo you have is from Kester School. Reading are Max Werner (left), Reatta Wood (hidden – I think this is who is hidden!), and Grace McDonald. On the floor is Race Johnson helping Caleb Burgess. Kester had the most students of any one-room school we visited. There were 15 students from 7 different families.”
In all, Keith visited 29 of the 67 one-room schools that were in operation in 2013-2014. Neil was there for 26 of the visits.
