Marker Text:
When the first pioneers began to arrive in the 1890's. Small public schools were built throughout the surrounding area in the Rural Municipalities of Lorne and Argyle to provide formal education for the children. Declining enrollment led to consolidation in 1959 and students were transported to the Mariapolis School which was incorporated into the Mountain School Division No. 28.
Dedicated to all the students who passed through these schools and to the teachers who taught them.
