Review:
The Nathan Hale Schoolhouse in New London is where Nathan Hale, the state hero, taught between 1774 and 1775, just a few years after his graduation from Yale at age 18. After this, Hale enlisted in the American Revolution and quickly became a Captain and was famous as the only soldier who volunteered to spy on the British who controlled Long Island, being hung for his efforts. The Nathan Hale Schoolhouse was built in 1773 and was called the Union School. Today, you can visit and go on a tour of the schoolhouse, where docents help keep it in good shape and share information with visitors.
