Direct from the pictured exhibit sign:
"This school has two doors, one for boys to enter, and one for girls to enter, but not all one-room schools included this feature. All eight grades would be taught together by one teacher with students ranging from 6-21 years old. All students learned the basics of reading, writing and arithmetic. Depending on the community and teacher, students might also study additional subjects such as geography, grammar and orthography (spelling)."
