Geer School


Eliza had a second grade field trip to Geer School. She had a great time!

What is Geer School?
"From 1880 to 1982, this one-room, red brick school represented an important era in Michigan education and was a center for community life. Named for William Geer, the first school director, and built by Joseph Warner of Ypsilanti, the school featured side by-side entrances for boys and girls, a slate blackboard, a woodshed and two outdoor privies. Water was carried in a bucket from across the road."
