Erected in 1914 by Claydon Brothers on a parcel of land bounded by Manitoba and Magnus avenues, and Powers and Andrews streets, the three-storey building of William Whyte School commemorated railway executive William Whyte, who had died earlier that year. In 1922, there were over 900 students under the guidance of 23 teachers, over three-quarters of whom were the children of newly arrived Russian Jewish immigrants.

In 1976, a new school building was constructed facing Powers Street and the original school on Manitoba Avenue was demolished.
