The Gardiner School District was organized formally in June 1890 and a one-room schoolhouse operated at the southwest corner of NW20-9-20W in the Rural Municipality of Whitehead. The district was dissolved in 1961 and its catchment area was divided between the Beresford Village School District, Roseland School District, and South Brandon School District.
