Union Center One-Room Schoolhouse

Welcome to the Union Center Schoolhouse, a charming relic from a simpler time. As you step through its doors, you're transported back to the early 20th century, where education was a cornerstone of rural life. 

What to Expect

Explore the Union Center Schoolhouse, where history lives on within the timeworn walls of this charming one-room schoolhouse. Originally serving the Union Center Township, this treasured piece of Howard's heritage was lovingly relocated to the Benson Museum Complex in 1997, preserving it for future generations to explore. Now, alongside wooden desks and benches that bear the marks of countless lessons, visitors can discover a unique collection that transports them back to the heart of 20th-century education. With recent additions like road graders that once shaped the landscape of Union Center and Hale, Kansas, there's a sense of living history here that you won't find anywhere else. Step inside and take a journey through time, where the past is more than just a memory – it's a vibrant, tangible experience.
