The Marsh Foundation School is an alternative school in Van Wert, Ohio, housed in a complex of historic buildings along the former Lincoln Highway. Founded under the will of George H. Marsh, whose estate provided more than $5,000,000 for a foundation, it serves impoverished children across northwestern Ohio. The Toledo firm Langdon, Hohly, and Gram was contracted in 1923 to build six school buildings on the Marsh farm, and the complex was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
