Where History Comes to Life for Students!

Step back in time and experience a school day like never before! At R.J. Haney Heritage Village & Museum, students will trade their modern classrooms for a one-room schoolhouse from the early 1900s, complete with a schoolmarm who will put them through their paces with old-fashioned lessons.

But school in the past wasn't just about reading and arithmetic—your students will explore, discover, and play the way children did over a century ago!

What's in Store for Your Students?

📜 Write on real slate boards and practice perfect penmanship.
🏠 Tour the original Haney House, where the Haney family once lived.
