Long Description:
In 1870, a one room school was built at Fort and Lincoln. Around
1919, the original frame school building was replaced with a four
room brick building. At that time the school was known as Ecorse
School District Number 10. In 1926, the school was renamed the
Cleophus Goodell school with the inclusion of a high school with
the ninth grade. The Goodell School closed in 1971 and was later
demolished.
Today, the original Goodell School bell is displayed in a bell
tower built with bricks reclaimed from Lincoln Park schools.
