General Pershing School


General Pershing School, District #2, was located 3 miles east of the village of Barronett, in Section 35 of Barronett Township.  Originally called Glessing School, named after the Glessing family that lived in that area, the name was later changed to General Pershing, but it is unknown when the name change was made.  It has also been known as just Pershing School, as well.  The school closed in 1943 and the students were then transferred to the Shell Lake School District.
