Schools of Jämsänkoski
In Jämsänkoski, schooling began as private tutoring, given since 1897 at the old assembly rooms by United Papermills. The first municipal schools began teaching in Jämsänkoski in the year 1903. At that time a primary school was started, and its school building was erected in 1906 on the site where the current commercial college is situated. A few years later, in 1910, a secondary school was built next to it. At first the schools were called by the name of the teacher who ran them. The primary school was called the Joutsen school and the secondary school the Toivila school.
