The quaint one-room schoolhouses dotting New Hampshire formed the
backbone of the early Granite State education system.
Education-minded communities began building these bare-bones
schools in the late seventeenth century. In a modest log or
clapboard structure, a single teacher faced the challenge of
instructing students of all grades through farming seasons and the
daily rigors of rural life. Often, these determined educators were
limited to instructing students from whichever books pupils brought
from home. Despite this, education was highly valued, and students
trekked through the weather of all seasons and endured corporal
discipline to become literate and learned. Author Bruce Heald
explores the evolution of New Hampshire's one-room schoolhouses and
shares the firsthand accounts and memories of former pupils.
