Metea School History
The schools of Bethlehem Township had a rustic beginning at a time of major advances in the country. While the township was organized in 1836, the Erie Canal was opened about the same time causing grain prices to triple while land sold for $1.25 per acre. And later on the national stage, Edison demonstrates an electric light bulb, and Bell invents the telephone.
Obviously, major changes were ahead for the country and Bethlehem Township. Some were good, some were not. The first trainload of oranges were shipped East on the brand new transcontinental railroad and the massive buffalo herds had just been wiped out. Perhaps most amazing is that basketball would not be invented for another 5 years causing some to ask, "Why even have a school?" Perhaps it was the looming tidal wave of change that stimulated the advance in education in Bethlehem Township. One of the first school houses was built entirely of logs on a dirt floor. The seats and desks were also built of logs split in half and smoothed to sit and write. Each school had about 50 - 60 pupils ranging in age from 6 - 21. There was no course of study. Instead, pupils brought to school whatever book or paper they had and, from these, learned their letters and reading. The school term lasted only about 3 months a year. Very little scholastic preparation was needed to procure a license to teach. Wages ranged from $1.25 - $2.00 a day, and in some cases, even less. As the township population increased, the people began to demand better schools. So an early step was giving the township trustee the right to hire all teachers instead district patrons. The first real system of schools in Bethlehem Township consisted of 10 schools with a school term of 6-8 months. The school erected in Metea in 1898 had a wooden frame and 3 rooms for both elementary and high school. By 1910 this building proved to be too small, so in 1911 through the efforts of Trustee Lyman Yantis, a new high school was constructed of brick for $15,000. Its first principal was Hubert Anderson with a first graduating class of 4 students. The images that follow are the treasures of the many students who filled the halls of the school they called Metea.
Why did the name METEA come from?
Chief Me-Te-A
Potawatomie chief of the Illinois Nation. A significant chief of noted eloquence involved in several treaty negotiations in Northern Indiana. This image is from a book of original paintings by Charles King in the Smithsonian Museum entitled, “History of the Indian Tribes of North American” by Thomas McKenney. |

The 1st school had 1 room and was used until 1898 and then used for storage until after 1911, |
Metea High School in 1957 with the new addition of 1925
In 1925 a new 2-wing addition was added with complete financing by township funds mainly through a bond issue. The entire community seemed very much in favor of the consolidated school at this time. The builders were Sullivan and Dowman, Trustee Guy Smith, and Principal Solon Long. This new structure not only added 6 classrooms, but also gymnasium, stage, study hall, and power plant.
A hot lunch program began in 1948 with Principal Vernon Zieg and Trustee John Conrad. The first cooks were Mrs. Davis and Mrs. Maroney. They were paid $4/day and meals cost 20 cents/day. Mothers from the community not only solicited money to help build this program, but also served as assistant cooks. |

New Shop Building in 1957 |
Shop Building in 2011
After more than a generation using classrooms for industrial arts, manual training, and farm shop, the need for a dedicated shop area was clearly felt. In 1957, through the efforts trustee Dale Davidson, a 62 x 40 ft. steel building was erected behind the school with a passageway through the stage. Boys enrolled in vocational agriculture classes did most of the construction.

THE END
|
In 1982 the school building that housed students for 56 years (1911-67) was disassembled into bricks, wood, metal, and dust.
