Historic Sites of Manitoba: Rosebud School No. 644 (Municipality of Louise)

The Rosebud School District was established formally in March 1891 and a school building was erected on the southeast quarter of 18-1-11 west of the Principal Meridian in what is now the Municipality of Louise. It closed in 1964 when it was consolidated with Crystal City Consolidated School No. 107. The school building is no longer present at the site but a metal sign commemorates it.
