The Scott School
 |
THE SCOTT SCHOOL: In 1872 farm families just west of Calliope went to Sioux City to buy $140 in lumber to build a school. It was erected near the Adam Scott homestead across the Big Sioux River in Dakota Territory. The school enrolled 14 pupils with an average attendance of 8. The school year was only 60 days long. Furnishings have been gathered from area schools to portray school life at the turn of the century. |
