Cleveland School
Cleveland School was a two-room schoolhouse for white students that was located in the Snow Creek district of Franklin County. The school was built on a concrete foundation, and it was heated with a stove. The building did not have electricity, running water, or indoor restrooms. Catherine Thompson and Annie Law both served as teachers at the school. By 1937, only one of the classrooms was in use.
