"The Library Trustees had a design developed by New York City architect, Ehrick K. Rossiter. School District Trustees did not immediately approve the design, but through discussion and compromise a second design was accepted. The building was constructed during the summer of 1901 by local carpenter Andrew Lieber, and dedicated 25 September 1901. The cost of the building was approximately $2,300.00.

The present building for the Glen Haven School operated from 1901 to 1968. Typically grades one through six were taught and some years included the seventh and/or eighth grade. School District No. 4 was independent until 1946, when it became part of the Homer Centralized School system. Local residents voted not to consolidate further until 1968. After the 1968 school year, the school was closed"
