Liberty Grade School was located six miles northwest of Ottawa. They include a history of the organization of the local rural schools. These books also have brief histories of the surrounding communities. Included in the Kaub School book is the establishment of the town of Centropolis. The books are filled with the stories of the students and teachers.
Information concerning rural schools is hard to find and books are rare.
Just as rare are collections of rural school games like those included in these books. This was a non-profit project to preserve the schools' histories. The donations will help cover the costs of research and publishing. The Kaub School book contains 177 pages and the Liberty School book contains 144 pages. The authors of these books are native to Ottawa, Kansas and attended Liberty School.
