Frl. - FRACTIONAL DISTRICT (District divided between two townships)
A factional school district was one that received pupils from more than one township. The townships from where the pupils came was required to help finance the school district on a prorated formula basis.
SECTION 16 of every township was know as the “school section”
because any money obtained from the sale of land in this section was never completely remodeled throughout the years,
Through the years, pupils living in certain areas of Thomas Township were educated in four fractional school districts in surrounding townships, often because of geographic convenience. The four districts received financial aid from Thomas Township. Three of the districts, Paines School, James No.3 and Fremont No.2, received pupils from the southwestern part of Thomas Township. The fourth district, Richland, No. 6, received pupils from the northwest part of that township.
