The St. Charles School District was established in March 1921 and, by the autumn, a one-storey, three-room stone and brick school building was constructed by contractor Patrick H. Hedges, on Lot 94 in St. Charles. A small room on a mezzanine between the two classrooms served as a library and “scolding room.” The school was paid for with the district issuing of two debentures, first for $30,000 in May 1921 to purchase a site, build the school, and then equip and furnish the schoolhouse. A further $20,000 in debentures were issued in January 1922 to complete the schoolhouse, following a vote of local ratepayers by a count of 35 in favour to 5 opposed. A small stable behind the building accommodated the horses ridden by students to school. In 1946, a third teacher was hired to teach a class housed in the basement.

In 1955, four more classrooms designed by the architectural firm of Smith Carter and Katelnikoff were constructed on the back of the building and, four years later, laboratories, a gymnasium, and more classroms were added, bringing the total classroom complement to twelve. In 1963, the district opened a second educational facility in Buchanan School. In 1967, the school became part of the Assiniboine North School Division. As student enrollment declined through the 1970s, especially after construction Hedges Junior High School, the number of classrooms in active use decreased. Finally, in June 1983, with only 146 students, the school closed and the remaining students moved to Buchanan School. The building was demolished and its cornerstone (laid on 22 July 1921 by Deputy Education Minister Robert Fletcher) was also transferred to Buchanan.
