ORIGINS

I grew up in a small Ohio town and I rode the school bus from 1st through 12th grades. My bus ride always included a country road on which every school day we saw a one-room brick school house. (SW corner of Stine Rd and Enon-Xenia Pike). As the years went by I watched this wonderful, familiar friend fall apart. After I married the school really began to deteriorate. Every time we visited the area I would want to take a photo of the school but never did. Finally, when we went specifically for the task, the school was gone. It was a huge loss for me and, since that time, whenever we pass a one-room school it is a joy to stop to take a picture or two. Thus, our collection here and the blog with schools in other states.

Perry Township #1

Northwest of Independence. Enlarged and highly modified by the Amish, this school sits on the east side of Fairbank-Amish Blvd, about .2 mile north of 175th St. Best approach is from SR150 North of Independence to Otterville Blvd (county D16) to Fairbank-Amish Blvd and turn north.
