Description
Founded in 1858, the Sisters of St. Agnes managed one of the first schools in Washington County, educating children of all denominations. The site highlights the triumph of survival over inexperience on the Wisconsin frontier and the drive to not give up but to seek success elsewhere. Discover the history of this treasured site as we pay tribute to Achievement Hall of Fame inductee and village founder Barton Salisbury. This is a free program that will be presented on Zoom.
