Historic Sites of Manitoba: Beaver Rapids School No. 674 (RM of Ellice)

The Beaver Rapids School District was organized formally in November 1891 and a one-room school building was erected on the southeast quarter of 8-16-29 west of the Principal Meridian, in the Rural Municipality of Ellice. It closed in 1927 and the remaining students went to Rutherglen Consolidated School No. 1297. The building is no longer at the site but a monument commemorates it.
