You might try at the Johnson County historical people down in Coralville, next to the automobile museum. They have a lot of information about the schools. We keep trying to find time to get there ourselves!

We had seen this building many years earlier and thought it looked like it might have been a school. The we watched as the owners modified it and put a couple additions on. Still wondering, we had a friend who had lived in the area for decades and she said it was indeed a one-room school. So in December 2007 we finally took a couple shots of it. This house/school is one mile north of our house in North Liberty, on State Highway 965 (old US 218).

Update, 10/18/10. This house is now for sale, and the flier says, "Unique Single Family Home Built From a Restored Schoolhouse." As you can see in the above photos, it has an addition on both sides, plus it has a 3-car garage. Description of the inside tells of some excellent work. Price is "reduced" to $285,000!
More photos from 1/20/11 show more of the house overall
