The Maple Creek School District was established formally in October 1936 and a one-room schoolhouse operated at SE26-16-10E in the Rural Municipality of Lac du Bonnet. The district was dissolved in 1966 and its catchment area became part of the Lac du Bonnet Consolidated School District and later the Agassiz School Division.
