 Visitors to the Lanesfield Historic Site can learn more about the history of education in Kansas, and Johnson County, by touring this exhibit. A rural educational system dominated small Kansas communities until the mid-20th century. Learn about the typical school day, the curriculum,  and the role most schoolhouses played in the larger community. The lives of teachers and students are also featured in sections about boarding, the school day, and graduation. Visitors may also learn about General James H. Lane, the town’s namesake, the restoration of the Lanesfield School and see artifactsthat survived the 1903 fire.
