I bet a lot of places are like that. Both the school and the airport go
way back. Schools were invented before airplanes, so if they both go
back far enough, the school will win.

As a rule, however, schools weren't built out in the country until the
consolidation craze of the 1960s, by which time most airports were
already in existence. All the schools I attended (seven) were
downtown.

In one case, funnily enough, I lived right by the airport (now
Skyhaven in Rochester NH) and was bused into town for school.
