I went to McNeal Elementary in about 1967-68. Mr. Stolp was my Teacher as well! He was by far the best teacher ever! I remember to this day, he would say,
"Say what you mean, and mean what you say". He made school so much fun. I fondly remember this school, as going to a two room schoolhouse for someone my age is quite a novelty!

I went to McNeal Elementary in 1970. Mr. Stolp was my teacher. It was the best education I received. I love that school dearly.
