For a Program on Connecticut Schoolhouses Presented by Melinda K. Elliott at the Oliver Ellsworth Homestead, 778 Palisado Avenue, Windsor, CT 06095 There was a time when you could walk through Connecticut and find schoolhouses scattered everywhere. Each schoolhouse had one teacher who taught all the neighboring children ages 7-16. In 1852, there were over 1600 schoolhouses! Author Melinda K. Elliott brings these schoolhouses to life in her book “Connecticut Schoolhouses Through Time” Book signing to follow.
