Visitors are invited to drop by to explore our Eight Square Schoolhouse between 2:00 pm and 4:00 pm on Sunday, October 5.

The Schoolhouse is an original one-room schoolhouse built in 1827. Today it is used to provide living history experiences for elementary students throughout the county. We operate the schoolhouse, located at 1756 Hanshaw Road in Ithaca, NY, as it may have been in 1892. This is an opportunity for interested residents to see the inside of the Schoolhouse, which is only open during scheduled programs. It is also a chance for former student visitors to visit the Schoolhouse with their families so they can share more about the experience.
