Nottawa Stone School
Introduction
Text-to-speech Audio
This historic school was built in 1870, replacing an earlier structure that was in disrepair. Located next to the modern Nottawa Community School, it was built with fieldstones and features a cupola above the entrance. Originally it had just one room but a second one was added by 1890. The school operated until the 1950s. The school district renovated it in 1967 to use it for a day to recreate a typical school day in the 1870s. It appears that the district still uses the building for this purpose today.
