History
A piece of land was donated on January 9, 1804 by Jacob Van Winkle for the construction of a school. The first schoolhouse was erected that year at a cost of $162.20. The first schoolhouse was replaced in 1849 by a two-story frame building. This second schoolhouse was torn down in 1893 and replaced by the current building at a cost of $2,541.83. The cupola and bell from the second schoolhouse were salvaged and added to the current schoolhouse.[4]
Little Red Schoolhouse
The Lyndhurst Historical Society operates the building as the Little Red Schoolhouse, a museum of local history.
