Cornell School
The Cornell School, is a historic one-room schoolhouse that served the children of farm families near Alexandria, Ohio, from 1886 to 1923. It has since been moved to Johnstown, Ohio, where it serves as a historical museum. Globally, one-room schoolhouses had a profound influence on literacy, critical thinking, and education of children in rural areas throughout the 18th, 19th, and 20th centuries. They stand as a reminder of the heritage, culture, and history of the places they occupy and, in many cases, helped develop social and democratic institutions. The Cornell School exemplified this specific educational system. The school was preserved by the Friends of Cornell School and belongs to National Schoolhouse Registry.
