Amsden Country School
On Third Avenue next to Historical House
      The Amsden School or Madison #2 was built in 1882 on land donated by C. S. Amsden southwest of Milbank.  After closing in 1966, the building and some of the furnishings and bell were purchsed and moved to Milbank for historical purposes.
     If you attended a country school, you will most likely recall sharing a desk with a classmate or warming lunches on the potbelly stove.
     Students find this old school very interesting when compared to present-day schools.
