The Ste. Antoine School District was established in December 1899. A one-room schoolhouse operated on Lot 542 of the Parish of Ste. Agathe in the Rural Municipality of Ritchot. The district was dissolved in 1960 and its area became part of the Ste. Agathe Consolidated School District. No vestige of the fomer school building remains at the site.
