This is an old newspaper photo of Harris Cannaday School that my mother, Mary Ellen Moran and her siblings attended.  The school is located on rt. 668 ( Cannaday School Road) which is off  of state route 221  northwest of Floyd.  The school is on the left side of the road at the intersection of 668 and 639.  When we were by there a couple of years ago, the building on the left, in the picture, was still standing.  My aunts, Rosetta Moran Lambert and Dollie Moran Finney say this was used as a dormitory.  The other building burned several years ago.
