Forest Grove School Preservation is a historic one-room schoolhouse located in Bettendorf, Iowa. The school was built in 1873 and served as an educational facility until 1957. It is one of the few remaining one-room schoolhouses in the Quad Cities area and has been preserved to serve as a historical landmark and educational facility.

The schoolhouse is a simple rectangular structure that is made of wood and has a gabled roof. It is painted white with green shutters and has a small bell tower on top of the roof. Inside, the schoolhouse has one large room that was used as both a classroom and a gathering space. There are rows of desks, a chalkboard, and a potbelly stove for heat.

Today, Forest Grove School Preservation is open to the public for tours and educational programs. Visitors can step back in time and experience what education was like in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The schoolhouse also hosts events such as holiday parties and historical reenactments.

In addition to its educational and historical significance, Forest Grove School Preservation is also an important part of the Bettendorf community. It serves as a reminder of the area's agricultural and educational roots and is a beloved local landmark.
