Soap Creek Schoolhouse
Nestled in the fir trees north of Corvallis, Oregon, the historic Soap Creek Schoolhouse stands as a reminder of the time when one room was enough to make a school. Built in 1935 during the depression when schools were built closer together to accommodate the children who walked to school, this well-preserved schoolhouse allows the vistor to step back in time to a by-gone era.
With its wood burning stove for heat, a spring for water, and a bell to summon the children to school, the one room schoolhouse brought unity as well as education to the community.
