The Heritage Alliance is excited to offer homeschool days at the historic Oak Hill School on September 7th, 18th, and October 23rd. ALL THREE DATES ARE CURRENTLY FULL.
The award winning Oak Hill School Heritage Education program is the only experiential learning program of its type in this region, and homeschool students are encouraged to come and experience history with the Heritage Alliance in Tennessee’s Oldest Town.
Oak Hill School was built in 1886 to serve the community of Knob Creek. The building served local residents until it was closed in the 1950s. The school building was moved the seven miles from Knob Creek to Jonesborough and placed in its current location behind the Visitors Center. Today, Oak Hill School invites students to come for a day-long experience and enroll in school in 1893. Reading, writing, arithmetic, history, geography – even the pledge of allegiance – are all as they were prior to the turn of the last century.
School will last from 9:00am – 2:00pm on Thursday, September 7th, Monday, September 18th, and Monday, October 23rd. This program is limited to 26 students, grades 1st – 12th.
The cost is $5.00 per student for the day at Oak Hill School. Students must register in advance. We cannot accept registration the day of the event. This event has a minimum registration of 12 students in order for it to take place.
All three dates are full, but we are happy to add you to the waiting list.
