    Important notes on School

    Although, there is no record of what happened to the schoolhouse. It is speculated that the building disappeared sometime around the 1950s.  There have been many Center schools throughout Iowa, as this is what schoolhouses that reside in the center of each district are called.

    Originally a boxcar schoolhouse, was later remodeled into a square school. Once the schoolhouse closed, there was no record of what had happened to the building.
