The Little Red Schoolhouse, official emblem of the Borough, is a reminder of its roots as a colonial settlement. While no longer used as a school (It was built in 1866 and classes were held there until 1914), it represents continuity amid change. The building has remained a visible symbol of traditional values. It is now a museum, open to the public, and operated by the Florham Park Historical Society. Florham Park is known for its community spirit, civic pride and involvement.
