Schools
By 1812, a permanent system of common schools with school districts for each township in New York was created by the state legislature. By 1825, New York had the most superior schools in the nation. The town of Phelps developed twenty-four districts. Each district had a school and a number. Some of the schools were also identified by a family name. These school/districts can be found on the 1904 map and their stories will be found on our Schools of Phelps page.

Narrative Histories
We are collecting narrative histories of Phelps.
