Living New Deal
The original school was built in 1912. The two-story, native stone Clairette School building survives as a community center and polling place.
In 1939, Works Progress Administration (WPA) built a separate gymnasium building and a star shaped fountain.
The rock work on the flagpole, the water tank, and the retaining wall appear to be the same vintage as the fountain, but there is no reference to them being WPA projects.
