This utility box is located on the SW corner of the intersection of Capitola Road and Chanticleer Avenue. It features a classroom scene with a teacher surrounded by students at their desks. The teacher stands in front of a green chalk board that spans the sides of the box. The teacher points to Today's Lesson. The chalkboard says "Today's Date: May 23, 1945", but I don't think green chalk boards were in use back then, only blackboards. On another side some children are doing an arithmetic lesson on the green board, while on the back, a lonely boy sits by himself with a dunce cap on.
This box was painted by artist Vanessa Stafford.
