SHOREACRES

A one-room school was built on the east side of the Kootenay River, in an area known as Shoreacres in 1915. In 1928, a second room was added and enrollment grew to 54 pupils. Unfortunately, in 1938 the original school was burned down and its students were then transferred to the Glade School.

In 1967, a new two classroom school was built on the Shoreacres Flats. The school was in operation until 1985 when it was closed. The site is now a housing development.
