Country School Association of America
The Country School Association of America was established at Northern Illinois University, Dekalb, Illinois, in June of 2006. The mission of the CSAA is to foster a deeper understanding and appreciation of country schools and country schooling. Each year, members host a conference that brings together individuals (museum staff, volunteers, teachers / faculty / students, preservationists, historians, and interested citizens) to exchange ideas and resources.
