The Stony Hill School was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976 in Waubeka, Wisconsin.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Stony Hill School )〕 ==History== The 19-year-old teacher at the school, Bernard J. Cigrand, had a profound love for the flag of the United States. Cigrand began specially honoring the flag on June 14, 1885 at the school, the anniversary of the flag's adoption. In 1916, inspired by Cigrand's actions, President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed June 14 to be Flag Day, though the day was not officially established by an Act of Congress until 1949, and Cigrand became known as the "Father of Flag Day". That same year, the school ceased operations.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Stony Hill Schoolhouse )〕 In 1947, the National Fraternal Congress moved for the school to be restored and by 1952 the restorations were complete. The school is now a museum and is a site of annual Flag Day celebrations.
