Wow! Take a look at all the progress that has been made on the schoolhouse cleanup in just two short days! Way to go Keystone Contracting!
Since tomorrow is Thanksgiving, the work will stop for the holiday, but we will have more updates for you all soon!
Stay tuned and have a Happy Thanksgiving!
A work crew from Keystone Contracting, arrived at 9:30 this morning to begin the removal of the damaged portions of the Mark Prairie Schoolhouse. So begins the first phase in the rebuilding process!
Although it is painful for many of us to see our beloved schoolhouse like this, we know the completed project will look amazing and are excited to watch the transformation take place.
Stay tuned for further updates on the rebuild as it progresses!

Fall has arrived! Thanksgiving and Christmas are just a few short weeks away, the end of 2021 is rapidly approaching and the work doesn’t stop here at Mark Prairie Historical Society. We are nearing the deconstruction phase of our schoolhouse!
We have had numerous hurdles to jump over since the February Ice Storm which caused extensive damage to the schoolhouse. With the recent winds and rain, the roof is continuing to collapse. Thankfully the building is insured, however, the insurance will not cover everything. WE NEED HELP! We would be most grateful if you would consider providing a year-end donation to our rebuilding of the Mark Prairie School. Your support is critical to the completion of our project.
Mark Memorial Park and Mark Prairie School belong to the community for use, and when the restoration is complete, the community will have a beautiful updated wedding venue and meeting hall for all to enjoy again 😊
Thank you for your continued support!
