Bunnell Elementary School: BUILDING ON THE PAST, LOOKING TOWARDS THE FUTURE By Janine Killmer A piece of history In the middle of the city of Bunnell, stands an elementary school whose vision is, “To create positive experiences and relationships that inspires a lifelong love of learning.” After Bunnell High School opened in 1923, there was a very active chapter of the Future Farmers of America. They would meet in the basement of the school and eventually raised enough money for a building of their own.
