Good day,

I was cruising around some back roads when I caught sight of this. Backed my truck up to the approach to take a better look. This place was well hidden in a grove of trees. I did not take a picture of the historical marker, (read it), only the building. Which by the way, scared the heck out of me! I took pictures from a safe distance. I was still shaking 45 minutes later because of this building.

Not sure what town I came out by, may have started with an I. Was camping in Foam Lake, SK so this building is an hour or so south of there.

I couldn't find this on your website or any information on internet.

I'll keep checking your site for updates. Enjoyed looking through the pictures on your webpage. Been to a few of them through my travels. I'm one of those people that stop at EVERY marker, point of interest or whatever :) We have a lot of history in western Canada, not even sure if they teach any of it in school anymore.

Thank you for preserving our history,

Teresa Bereti

Dear Teresa,

Thank you for sending in this awesome picture. I am glad you were cautious of taking the photo. It is intriguing to capture and document the historical schoolhouses which were brick, as many of them started out as log and then frame buildings. The majority of consolidated (three or more rooms) or union (two room) schoolhouses were brick. I too, enjoy stopping and celebrating history as we travel as well, and it is amazing what can still be found on the back roads, still.

It has been a pleasure to try to document as many schoolhouses or plaques as possible. It was unnerving to see some local schoolhouses locally no longer standing, which is one of the reasons which prompted me to begin the project, to preserve their memory.

Kind Regards

Julia
