As part of the St. Albans City School’s 50th anniversary, the UA team is asking students to find the answers to the following questions. It is a fun way to learn what life was like for Mrs. Lamb when she was a middle school student at St. Albans City Elementary School. We are hoping each community will pick a question to answer. Your research will be shared with everyone in the announcements. Have fun learning about 1970!
