A One-Room School

Nebraska Stories

Air Date: 09/21/2009

In 1997, Nebraska Public Media documented a year in the life of Burr Oak, a one-room schoolhouse in Custer County. Though its doors have since closed and its walls now stand quiet, the school’s spirit lives on. We revisit that final year and reconnect with former students, now grown, who still value what Burr Oak taught them.
