Edison School - Across State Route 95 on the South Side of Corner
1823 the first building was made of log construction. The second building, built in 1824-1825, was also made of logs.
Two frame buildings were built on the east side of County Road 9 between 1825 and 1862. The Edison School brick building was started on Aug. 10, 1882, with $6,000 in bonds sold for its construction. It opened in December 1882 with 50 students.
A front addition was built in 1916 because of an increase in the number of students. A bond issue was passed to erect a new building with a gym, lab and shop in 1931. The last addition with the gym was completed in 1932 at a cost of $32,500.
The school was used up until early 2015, and was demolished in 2017.
