The School House

Built: 1851 
Dedicated: 1976

​

Step back in time and experience a piece of history at the Old Falls Village School House!

Built in 1851 for just $55, this one-room schoolhouse served as a hub of education for students of all ages. With only one teacher, all eight grades were taught in this charming building. You can still see initials and names etched into the walls, a testament to the memories created here. Imagine the crackle of the wood-burning stove as it provided warmth during long winter days, and the students pumping water from the outdoor well.

Sadly, in 1980 the schoolhouse was broken into and the historic school bell was stolen. Despite this setback, the School House still stands as a symbol of education and community.
