COLLINSWOOD SCHOOL MUSEUM<br />
The Collinswood School Museum actually had it’s beginning<br />
around 1876 when it was constructed specifically as<br />
a one room school house.<br />
Mr. Collins constructed<br />
the school house on his<br />
estate, approximately one<br />
mile west of Ponchatoula,<br />
to assure an education for<br />
his son. He then hired and<br />
boarded a teacher and offered<br />
educational training<br />
for other children in the<br />
area. The school operated<br />
in that fashion until around<br />
1908. Grades 1 through 6<br />
were taught in the single<br />
room.<br />
