Mazeppa School, Mazeppa Union County Pa

School House, Mazeppa PA

There were at least three schools in Mazeppa.

The first was a log structure located just south of the Union Church.

The second school was built of brick in 1836 or 38, and was known as the Union School.  It was located just north of the third school. The school taught English and German, and the building was available for Christian worship on Sundays and weekday evenings. 

The two room brick schoolhouse, built in 1885, was located near the intersection of Johnson Mill Road and Col. John Kelly Road.  That was the 3rd school built in the area. It's south room was for the primary grades, and the north room served grammar grades.  Sliding doors, when opened, produced an auditoriaum seating for nearly 200 people.   The Mazeppa School was sold in 1953 to the Union Church.  

The Union Schools continued in use until 1953, replaced by the new school at Buffalo Crossroads.
