Beach School is a historic building located northwest of Mount Vernon, Iowa, United States.
Because school district lines had been redrawn, students in this area were forced to attend classes in a building some distance away.
Given the condition of rural roads in the late 19th century, that created a hardship for many families.
Not only was his farmhouse nearby, but Beach also operated a sawmill along the creek east of the school and a gristmill across the road.
