| As
a way of sharing an important part of our rural American heritage, Friends of
Schoolhouse #8, Inc is dedicated to preserving this one-room rural schoolhouse,
complete with period appropriate furnishings, teaching aids, and memorabilia.
We believe that the educational environment has changed so dramatically within
the past one hundred years, that words cannot adequately convey the developments. The
best way to experience the changes is for current and future generations to visit
and be able to see and touch a real, restored, rural school like the one in which
many of their ancestors were educated. |
