Country schools such as this were found every few miles beginning in the pioneer years of the 1860's, the 19th Century through the mid 1960's; the middle of the 20th Century. 

The one room education for grades 1 through 8 served the nation and Wisconsin for over 100 years.  It was a time when getting an education beyond 8 grades was though unnecessary.
