More about Hernando
Its oldest historic public building is the Hernando Elementary School, a one-story red brick building built in 1941 and 1942 with help from the Works Progress Administration. It stands on land from a U.S. government land grant to Edward Croft in 1885 and replaced several earlier wooden schools. The school was designed by Henry L. Taylor, also the architect of the Vinoy Hotel in St. Petersburg, and is known for its irregular shape and Colonial Revival details. It was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on May 4, 2001. Sources Wikipedia: Hernando, Florida The Historical Marker Database: Historic Hernando School (Fort Cooper Chapter, NSDAR)
