Being a teacher, one of my primary curiosities upon moving to Waterville, of course, was the school. I remember Googling "Waterville School" and finding numerous listings for a school in Maine but it took a bit of searching to finally happen upon a website for the "Waterville School" in Waterville, WA. The website was very dated in appearance and I noticed that nothing new had been posted since 2002! (We moved to Waterville in 2007.)
I immediately contacted the superintendent to offer my services to redesign and maintain the school website and I was told that my timing was perfect because they had just been discussing their need for an up-to-date website. I have been the school webmaster ever since!
It didn't take long before I was contacted by a local man, Harold Badten, who had his own website in dyer need of a webmaster. I have been maintaining and slowly redesigning his website since 2008. "Waterville School Alumni Memories" is a fascinating collection of historic (and some not-so-historic) photographs and stories about the Waterville School and school alumni. Take a look if you've never seen it! http://waterville-alumni.com.
If you're already familiar with the alumni site, check out the new "Historic Waterville" file ( http://waterville-alumni.com/historicwaterville) which includes photographs from the personal album of Chester (C.M.) Lockwood, whose photos you may have seen in the local museum.
