Title	Lanesfield School Historic Site
Description	The Lanesfield School Historic Site is a tribute to rural schooling. It consists of a restored one-room schoolhouse, outbuildings and a visitor's center featuring an exhibit on Kansas' one-room schools called "Just Plain Simple: The One-Room School in Kansas." For ninety-three years Lanesfield School served the educational needs of the local rural population. The school opened in 1869 and its students came from farming families. The children fit school in between their morning and evening chores. The schoolteacher taught grades one through eight in the subjects of geography, reading, spelling, arithmetic and penmanship. Former Lanesfield students have fond memories of attending the school. James E. Payne attended Lanesfield school in the 1870s and recalled that "it was interesting to see the [Santa Fe Trail] wagon trains pass by when we could get outside to enjoy the sight." Lanesfield School operated as a one-room school until school district consolidation in 1963. The Museum staff restored the school to its 1904 appearance and it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988. Today, the Lanesfield School Historic Site continues the tradition of one-room schools in Kansas. A costumed schoolteacher leads site tours and conducts 1904 lessons in the schoolhouse. The Lanesfield School Historic Site serves area school groups with a variety of programs, including an award-winning living history program that transports students back to a school day in 1904. Events, such as Christmas at Lanesfield and May Day at Lanesfield, make the Lanesfield School Historic Site a fun place to visit year-round.
