History of Liberty Center School by Mrs. Gladys Downing The first schoolhouse in Liberty Center was built in 1862 on the southeast corner of Main Street and highway 65. After having school there for several years this building was sold and moved one block east and one block south of the main corner of town. John M. Coles was the first teacher who taught there. The next school building was built in 1875 by John W. Proctor and Bill Edgerton one and a half blocks south of the main corner on the east side of highway 69. It was used as a two-room school, the upstairs for the upper grades with A. B. Johnson as teacher, and downstairs the lower grades with May Ames the teacher. It was used this way for twenty-two years, then sold to be used as a store. In 1897 a two-room school was built on the present Lester Hall property, all on the ground floor. This building was used until 1922 when the consolidated school was built. Mr. Hall is still living in this building [in 1953] which he remodeled into a nice comfortable dwelling. |
