Historic Sites of Manitoba: Gull Lake School No. 2269 (RM of St. Clements)
The Gull Lake School District was established formally in June 1936 and a one-room schoolhouse operated at NE25-16-7E in the Rural Municipality of St. Clements. The school closed in June 1966 and its students were bused to Thalberg North School. The district was dissolved in 1968 and its catchment area became part of the Agassiz School Division. The former school building was sold at auction and used as a private residence. It was later destroyed by fire and another residence was built on its foundation.
