Early Schools
The first settlers arrived here in 1851.
A one-room building was erected and used
for Church and School in 1852. Candice Smith
and George Spencer and wife were teachers. In
1855 a school house was erected inside the
fort and early teachers were: Martha Hayward,
Thomas Ord, Andrew Love, Mary Ellen Love, John
Chapman, Amy Bigler, and Martha Shofield. Later
school was held in the Social Hall and in 1894
Central School was completed. The bell on this
marker was installed and used as a curfew and
to call the children to school.
