Historic Sites of Manitoba: Hyde Park School No. 916 (RM of Dufferin)

The Hyde Park School District was established in October 1897 and a log school building was constructed at NW3-7-7W in the Rural Municipality of Dufferin. It closed in 1910 and its catchment area was consolidated with Roseisle School District the following year. No vestige of the school remains at the site but a commemorative sign was installed by the Carman/Dufferin Municipal Heritage Advisory Committee.
