Composite of three schools from 1908. The school on the left is the one-roomed school built in the early 1890s from part of the first school house (a railway boxcar). The building on the right is the two-roomed school built in 1904. The centre building is the concrete four-roomed school which opened in 1907, originally called Central School and later Swift Current Collegiate Institute, and which was part of the W A Beatty Collegiate Institute until 1975.
