The Gordon Union School District was established in April 1885 and a one-room schoolhouse operated at SE2-9-9W in what is now the Municipality of Norfolk Treherne. The district was dissolved in 1956 and its area became part of the Rathwell Consolidated School District. A monument stands at the former school site.
