old schoolhouse
Historic rural academy
An old schoolhouse is a former or historic school building, typically a small, rural structure from an earlier era.
The phrase evokes one-room schoolhouses of 19th and early 20th century America, where students of all ages learned together: The old schoolhouse has been converted into a community center.
Many survive as museums or landmarks.
