Schoolhouse #5 was built in the 1870s and formerly was located 5 miles away at Baseline and Bush Roads. It was replaced with a new school in 1918 and the former #5 was moved to a nearby farm, where it stood for many years. The schoolhouse was then moved in June 1970 to its present location, next to Kelly's Country Store on Grand Island Blvd, when the Grand Island Historical Society took it over and refurnished it.
