Historic Sites of Manitoba: Lakeview School No. 419 (Municipality of Lorne)

The Lakeview School District was established in August 1885 and a one-room schoolhouse operated at SE5-5-10W in what is now the Municipality of Lorne. In 1960, the district was dissolved and its catchment area became part of the Swan Lake Consolidated School District and later the Mountain School Division.
