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.

Lily of the Valley #5, Moville School

This school is preserved on the grounds of the Northwest Are Eduction Agency on the north side of Cherokee on State Highway 3. The single outhouse was also moved here. From Woodbury County, it was originally moved to Copeland Park near Correctionville but moved to Cherokee due to flooding and possible loss.
