COUNTRY SCHOOL

          The MCHS Country School was moved to the Society’s grounds from another location. It has been restored to duplicate the furnishings and look of a rural one-room school. The restoration includes actual slate blackboards, student desks, a raised teacher’s station, a non-working wood-burning stove, and period educational materials. During the spring and fall festivals, the building is open to visitors and youngsters can “ring the bell” for a !0-cent donation.
