Anne Arundel County Free School
Anne Arundel County Free School, Educational museum in Davidsonville, United States
The Anne Arundel County Free School building measures 49 feet by 18 feet, containing six rooms spread across two floors in a colonial architectural design.
The Maryland Free School Act of 1723 led to the construction of this educational institution, which operated from 1746 until its closure in 1912.
Johns Hopkins, who later founded The Johns Hopkins University, attended classes at this school from 1806 to 1809 before working in tobacco fields.
The museum opens for school groups and Sunday afternoons, with a new gravel walkway connecting the road to the building entrance.
This structure stands as the only remaining schoolhouse built following the Maryland Free School Act of 1723, preserving early American educational history.
