The Gleneden School District was organized formally in July 1908 and a one-room schoolhouse operated at the northwest corner of SW34-27-28W in what is now the Municipality of Roblin. In 1967, the district was dissolved and its catchment area became part of the Goose Lake Consolidated School District and later the Intermountain School Division.
Among the teachers of Gleneden School was A. E. N. Carnochan (1962-1964).
