Brighton Area Historical Society

The Lyon School was built in 1885 and served the needs of the area school children for more than 60 years.  It also served as the Brighton Township Hall before becoming the headquarters for the Brighton Area Historical Society.  The Lyon School has since been fully restored and is now a historical asset of the local community.

The school also serves as a functional classroom.  The Lyon School has a third grade curriculum and is available for teachers to use as a resource to show their students what school life was like in early twentieth century rural Michigan.
