Zimmerman School collection

The Zimmerman School Collection has a small gathering of artifacts, books, documents, and photographs from over the years. The collection consists of an elementary arithmetic book, an 1838 intellectual arithmetic book, a word book, an 1890 school geography book, and fourteen cardboard farm animals with descriptions on back. The collection also provides photographs of school classes and teachers from 1910 to 1925, photographs of the Zimmerman family and home, and information on the school from inception to its ownership by the Wood County Park District. An interesting feature of this collection is the inclusion of original parts of the schoolhouse. It has a piece of floorboard, some wood trim, two door hinges, a printing plate, and an oversized piece of wood signed and dated 1892 from the original school.
