I stumbled upon this school after trying to locate an old benchmark from 1905 (it is missing and presumed destroyed). The only information I could find online is from the Klamath County Museum website that has a page dedicated to the school as well as discussing an old picture of the former gymnasium that used to exist near the school (web link provided below).

I surveyed the school grounds and it appears that this structure is now privately owned since there was a dog kennel full of barking hounds behind the school. There are broken windows throughout and the structure has fallen into disrepair over the decades. I don't know when this school officially closed its doors but will find out more information in time from the Klamath County Museum and update that info here if/when I get some answers.
