GRADE SCHOOL BllIl.lJINt2 Historical Sketch Hli General Assembly of the state of Ohio passed an act requiring at re- organization of schools in March, 1853. Before this time schools were not required in any community. lt was just up to those people to have a school or not have one. The following month, April, the voters, about three hundred, held a meeting and elected a school board. It was the first school board of this community and was composed of the following: john McPherson, I,. H. Booker, and IJ. H. Brinkenhoff. School at this time was being held in a little schoolhouse east of town. It was sold to john Cotral. This meant that another schoolhouse must be provided, so school was held in a little frame building on First Street. The next year this was sold to A. B. Hartman. In the meantime. a two-story, brick building was being constructed on Dow Street between Third and Fourth Streets. Beginning in 1854, school was held here for several years. Page Eight
