Located between the Godwin School district and Wyoming Park School district was Kelloggsville. Formed in 1856, the school’s first building was built on land given by Francis William Kellogg in 1859. The one-room school house (pictured above) was located on South Division where the high school now stands. Kelloggsville was between the Godwin School district and Wyoming Park School district. Godwin schools were organized in 1843 and Wyoming Park schools in 1850.
