This secret remained untouched and hidden for a century until construction workers began renovations in this building. After the knocked down a wall, they discovered something so unbelievable that news crews came rushing in.

The world we live in is constantly changing and evolving, often leaving the past forgotten. But one public school in Oklahoma recently made a remarkable discovery during their renovations that serves as an important reminder of our history.

The Emerson High School in Oklahoma City found a set of slate chalkboards perfectly preserved since 1917. This discovery gave us an insightful glimpse into life at school over 100 years ago.

Upon uncovering the boards, they contained unique insight into what life was like a century ago. Scribblings and doodles from teachers and students were seen on the boards, along with lessons about the Pilgrims and how to keep clean. Additionally, there were math equations taught using a wheel method which Principal Sherry Kishore had never seen before.

Not only did these images conjure up nostalgia for many viewers but it also gave us a rare glimpse into the past through this up-close and personal way.

When Principal Kishore showed her 85-year-old mother the discovery she was moved to tears because it looked exactly like her classroom when she was younger. For those who experienced this era first-hand, seeing the chalkboard brought about a range of emotions – “It’s like you’re walking into a time capsule that’s been preserved,” said Principal Kishore.

As such, it is no surprise that the district decided to preserve all of these chalk drawings as opposed to replacing them with more modern whiteboards – something which has become increasingly popular over time.

Not only does this provide us with an incredible insight into our nation’s past but it also serves as an important reminder that sometimes even small discoveries can have huge implications for future generations.
