The School House

The one room school was part of the Norwich Township School District as early as 1814, the year after the township was formed.  All one room schools were closed when the Consolidated Elementary School at Main and Cemetery Roads was built in 1917.  The Grandview school was built in 1891 and was located on Cosgray Rd.  It was moved to the Historical Village in 1977.  Its size is 891 sq. ft. of joisted masonry.

Students from grade one through grade eight attended this school together.  One teacher taught all eight grades.  Older students helped younger students by tutoring them when they were having difficulty.
