Historical Setting
All that surrounds the young child is of paramount importance. In a wondrous way, children are open to their environment. Children learn best by doing, and play is the serious work of childhood.
At 155 years young, the Kentucky Flat Schoolhouse may be the oldest continuously used one-room schoolhouse in California. The building with its iconic high porch and roof-top bell tower, at the corner of Newtown and Kentucky Flat roads west of Grass Valley, operated as a school for 108 years, until 1963, according to historical records.
