Hey Mack, I thought you might like this info for your blog.
I was going through some old boxes and found this picture.
I don't remember this, but my wife tells me Roebling School
was located on Beatty Street and Home Avenue.
If I stumble on anymore interesting pictures, I'll send
them to you.
God bless the Burg!
All best,
Vince Sbarro
UPDATE: Hey Mack, I have more info on the picture I just
sent you. The following are names of the kids who my wife
recognizes.
1st row from the right
3rd right-Carol Graziano
4th-Joe Poedebecky
5th-John Sminko
2nd row from right
2nd-Sandra Warden (my wife)
3rd-Michael Kondash
4th-Pat Rustay
6th-Elizabeth Papp
Mack, the first two rows are kindergarten children and
Miss Foss was the teacher (not in photo)
The picture was taken perhaps in 1949 or 1950 as my wife
recalls.
Thanks for this Vince, its great. God Bless The Burg, Amen:)

What a great pic!
John Simko and I enlisted in the Navy at the same time - we had consecutive serial numbers, and were able to serve aboard the aircraft carrier ESSEX for a year.
A few of the teachers moved over to Harrison school when Roebling closed.
Miss Foss was my kindergartend teacher in 1951. Teresa Rich taught me for a while in first grade and then I moved over to Miss Goetz's class because the first grade class was so large.
I think I remember Carol Graziano, Sandra Warden, Joe Poedebecky, either from the upper classes at Harrison or from Jr 4 or THS.
Michael Kondash's sister, Patricia, was in my class at Harrision.
Became the Boys Club.
Is that the same John Simko that became a police detective? He was my Godmother's nephew.
Bob,
John retired from the Hamilton PD not too long ago. We spoke not too long ago.
BTW, in this pic, is that Miss Foss, Mrs. Rich and Miss Goetz? That's a Triple Crown for me: my first three teachers at Harrison Scool after Roebling closed.
SJBill all three are in the picture. Right rear is Miss Foss, Miss Rich is left rear and left front is Miss Goetz according to my wife Sandra.
