The first school at Boldo was erected
1878. It was a little log one-room building located
about 1/2 mile south of where the present 69 Hwy/Boldo
Cut off Road is. They called it the Wildhog School. The
students sat on roughly-hewn log benches, marking their
lessons on slates. Mr. John B. Hughes was the teacher.
In July, 1885 the school burned. A new
one was erected in a more central location (north of
present 69 Hwy close to the present Primitive Baptist
Church). In 1911 a newer building with more class room
was built close by.
On February 24, 1941 the school once more
caught fire and burned to the ground. Senator Lister
Hill obtained funding for the construction of a new
school at Boldo. It was built directly across the 69
highway where it remained until the Boldo and Union
Chapel schools were combined and named Valley School.
