Minerva One Room School Praised as Founding Spark
In 1813 Minerva's only school was a one room institution that inspired the later expanded system. Pioneer educator O W Kurtz credits the good outcome to a nonsectarian, Christian board and dedicated teachers. The high school, started by H V Merrick, produced five graduates in 1885 and now boasts a broad faculty and a Sept 8 start with W F Bonar as superintendent.
