The One-Room Schoolhouses of Hopkinton, New Hampshire. An Eagle Scout Project.
White, Jared
This booklet contains a pictorial history of one-room schoolhouses in Hopkinton, New Hampshire. Following a brief description of the typical one-room schoolhouse, the history of Hopkinton's one-room schoolhouses is traced from 1768, when a town meeting voted to construct two schoolhouses, to 1936, when the last one-room schoolhouses were closed. Hopkinton's original 21 one-room school districts are listed and located on a map. Comparison photographs depict the schools in the past and today. Interviews with local residents describe their experiences as students in four of the schools. School addresses are listed. (SV)
