"Kelloggs Corners Schoolhouse is one of the few one room schoolhouses still in existance today. Although the schoolhouse currently resides on Main Street, in the front lawn of the Newfield Central School campus, the house was originally on Vankirk Road at the junction with Kelloggs Corners. The land was given to Newfield by John and Anna Abbot and was named after a man named Soloman Kellogg. When the school closed in 1939, the Kellogg's Corner Arts and Crafts Club bought it for one dollar."
