Seven-eighths of an acre was purchased for a school lot around 1910 – Lot no. 53, Section 20, Township 7A.
The size of the school was 33′ by 27′ by 12′; it was built in 1910 – 1911.
From 1926 on, they had grades one to ten. The District paid approximately $600 toward salaries; the provincial government paid the rest. Students came from the Pend d’Oreille on horseback from Waneta. Some walked five miles there and back each day. This school was used until 1954.
