Fallsvale Historic Schoolhouse

Honoring the past, enriching the present, inspiring the future.

The Fallsvale Historic Schoolhouse has served generations of families in the mountain communities as more than a place of education. Built during the early 1930s, it became a center for learning, gathering, and shared responsibility during some of the most challenging years in our nation’s history.

Today, the schoolhouse remains a powerful symbol of community resilience, care, and continuity. Preserving this historic structure is not about nostalgia, it is about honoring the people who built it, the children who learned within its walls, and the role it continues to play in our shared story.

Fallsvale Historic Schoolhouse Inc. exists to steward this place responsibly and transparently. Our work focuses on preservation, education, and public understanding, ensuring that future generations can learn from the past while remaining connected to the values that shaped this community.

Through careful documentation, collaboration, and community engagement, we are committed to protecting the integrity of the schoolhouse and advancing a thoughtful path forward that respects history while preparing for the future.
