Since it's been 55 yrs since the closing of Appleton I suspect the majority of those now living in New Ipswich have no memories of, or emotional ties to Appleton. I wonder why the expansion plans put forth by the Trustees were rejected by local school boards.
It's sad that it was rejected. The "open classroom" concept was a mistake as I have heard. The folks that attended Appleton had the opportunity for a great education. It is nice to know that the building is now home to a wonderful museum.

Glad to hear that. I intend to visit it next time I'm in NH.
