Killian School was a one-room primary school built about 1925 that stood about 1 mile east at the intersection of Killian and Longtown Roads until 2001. A school at Killian, also called Killian’s, existed as early as 1905. From 1913 to 1948, Killian School had two teachers and an enrollment of 30 to 80 students in grades 1-7, with an average attendance of 30 to 40 and an eight- to nine-month school year. The school closed in 1948, and its students and one teacher went to Blythewood Grammar School. In 1954, Richland County sold the school to the citizens of Killian for $100.00 to serve as a community center. In 2000, the Killian School was deeded to Richland County School District Two and moved here in 2001 to be renovated as a museum of 20th century rural education and a conference center.
