Making History COme Alive!

Students learn best when the abstract becomes concrete.  At the Wolcott House and Complex, students will be able to step back in time and experience life in the early to late 1800s.  Students will learn about school, clothing, style, work, play, and other aspects of daily life and culture on the Ohio frontier.
