About
The One Room School House, formally known as the Jore School, was found in the woods near Newport, Washington and restored with care and attention to historical accuracy. The School House represents EWU’s beginnings in 1890 as the first institution in Washington for teacher instruction.
Since opening to the campus and public in 2004, over 5000 visitors have crossed through the doors and at the start of each school year, a bell-ringing ceremony is held. Tours and field trips are offered by the School of Education upon request.
