S. S. #4 - Linwood

The first school in Linwood was built in 1856. It was a frame building on cedar posts. Later a one-room frame school was built on the same site. This school burned down and a third school was built, this time a two-room white brick structure. After this building was condemned and torn down, the present school was built in 1915, a one-room red brick building. It featured separate entrances for boys and girls.

In about 1915, the school section was divided into public and separate sections and the Catholics built their own school in the town of Linwood.

S. S. #4 was closed in the 1960s when a new school was built on Pine St. in Linwood. It now serves as a private residence and business.
