Rural Schools

Clinton Township, Rock County, Wisconsin

According to the 1873 atlas and 1917 atlas for Rock County, there were six rural schools in Center
Township.
The location and current status of these school buildings is given below (using the modern road names).
The numbers given to each school are mine and not district numbers.
I do not know where Clinton Community and Hofto schools were located. Jefferson Prairie was
either the school in Sect. 29 or in Sect. 34.
