This blog entry is part of an ongoing project called “One Room Schoolhouses in CT”). If you’re interested in the history of one room schoolhouses in CT I suggest you purchase CONNECTICUT SCHOOLHOUSES THROUGH TIME by Melinda K. Elliott. This book was has been a very helpful resource for me as I did my research. At time of writing this book was available on AMAZON.
Trap Falls Schoolhouse
70 Ripton Rd.
Shelton CT
This schoolhouse was built c. 1872 and saw its last students in 1905. It was closed due to a decline in students. At some point the schoolhouse was moved from it’s original location, (site unknown), and now sits on the property of the Shelton Historical Society.
