Reid School, completed in 1914, is significant to Bend as the community’s third schoolhouse under a public school system and the first schoolhouse of modern design and equipment. It played a part in the education of Bend citizens for 65 years. In 1979 the title for the school was transfered from the School District to Deschutes County. Following refurbishment the building opened as the Deschutes County Historical Society Museum.
