Kingsley Schoolhouse Open House & Guided Tours

Presented by Montgomery Parks at Kingsley Schoolhouse

Explore this 19th-century historic treasure! One of the best remaining examples of a one-room schoolhouse in Montgomery County! 

Built in 1893 in response to the need for a school within walking distance of farms located in the Little Bennett Creek Valley, the Kingsley Schoolhouse served the local, rural farming community until it closed in 1935. Each year, around 20 children ranging in age from 6-12 years old attended the school. Since the immediate area was known locally as Froggy Hollow – due to the large number of frogs that could be heard peeping in the low-lying area – the school acquired the nickname of Froggy Hollow School.
