Midway School Project
We on poised to move the last Livermore Valley one room schoolhouse, Midway School, from the Altamont Hills to Hagemann Park next to the 150-year-old Historic Hagemann Ranch. This creates a destination for immersive elementary school field trips and a public museum. The ranch and school are almost the same age, making joint events historically consistent.
Help pave a (literal) pathway to the schoolhouseClick: Permanent Bricks
These bricks help fund architectural drawings, moving the building, reconstruction on a new foundation, a new front porch, and all furnishings (potbelly stove, textbooks and student desks).
