District Schoolhouse

This late-Victorian schoolhouse was built in 1874-75. Constructed at a cost of three thousand dollars, it is made of locally manufactured yellow and red brick. The 1882 Cass County history described it as “the best rural schoolhouse in the State.” Its two classrooms could accommodate 110 pupils. The school was used until the local district was absorbed into the Constantine School District in 1959. In 1964 the building became the township hall and, in 1972, the Mason Union Branch of the Cass County Library.
