Historic Sites of Manitoba: Castle Hill School No. 1057 (Municipality of North Cypress-Langford)

The Castle Hill School District was established in March 1900 and a one-room schoolhouse operated at SW4-10-13W in what is now the Municipality of North Cypress-Langford. The district was dissolved in 1967 and its area became part of the Carberry Consolidated School District and later the Beautiful Plains School Division.

Among the teachers of Castle Hill School were Miss Elizabeth Fran (1900) and Constance G. Spratt (?-1941).
