One Room Schools in Alberta - Listings

As we get more this page will be divided up.  Won't you help with this project?  Do you know of a one room school that is still standing? Can you take a photo of the building?  Do you have a class photo from a one room school house that you would like to share?  Or do you know where one is/was?  Can you help with what is already here?  Possibly with the years that it was open and the location.  You can send the info to apeebles@sat-co.net.

Unnamed (do you know the name?)
 
about 7 miles outside of Mannville, Alberta.
It is on a farm and has not been used as a school for many years. My mother attended there and she was born in 1908.  She rode to the school on a horse and I remember her telling how she had to start the fire in the school so had to be there early. R. Wilson
