Whatever building there was used for a school starting about 1851. It burned down about 1866. In 1867, the Dill Boys built the existing Stickney School building. In 1859, there were 23 students at Stickney for a 7.5 month school year. In 1924, Stickney educated students from the beginners grade through 8th grade, but after that in 1925 the 7th and 8th graders attended Watervliet City School. Sometime in the 1930's the 5th and 6th graders also started attending the City School. The last year Stickney housed pupils was the 1939-40 school year when 28 were enrolled. It then closed as a school, but was used as a community center with a variety of events. In 1955, the Church of Christ became owners of the Stickney School.
