| McCreary & District's Former Schools |
| The province of Manitoba issued each school district a number in chronological order; the lower the number, the earlier the school district was formed. To form a district, there had to have been ten prospective students and no student should have been required to walk more than two miles to get to school. That is why there were so many schools. |
| NO. 807: Montcalm, Camden, Norgate |
 |
 |
| Camden School |
| Norgate School, built in 1920 |
| This district formed in 1894, and the school was built in 1895 on NE 34-20-15, with lumber hauled by team from Neepawa. Although the number 807 remained, the school's name was changed to Camden, and operated along the Burrow's Trail, until 1920. The school was used as a temporary church and meeting hall until it was sold and moved as a private residence. In 1920 a new school was built at the hamlet along the railway. The number remained, but the school was renamed Norgate. When the school closed in 1966, the building was moved to Kelwood, first as a storage shed, and later a grainery. |
| NO. 836: Canadaville |
 |
| Canadaville School Students 1915 |
| This district was formed in March of 1895. In 1921 this school was closed by consolidation with Rosamond. The building was sold and moved, but remains standing. |
| NO. 1149: Glencairn |
 |
| Glencairn School and its "school bus", a horse drawn van. |
| The first one-room Glencairn school was built on NW 23-19-14 in 1907. On july 1, 1920, Glencairn became a consolidated school district. Immediately east of the first school a new brick school, complete with laboratory, library, cloakrooms, and a full basement was built. The basement contained a furnace room, boys and girls facilities, a girls playroom and a boys playroom. This school opened in 1921. The school closed in 1966, but remains standing on the original site. |
| NO. 1152: Mountain Eve |
 |
| 1923 Miss Girling and students outside original Mountain Eve School |
| Mountain Eve School District was formed February 3, 1899. The school was built on SW 27-20-15. By 1936 this location was no longer central, so the vacant Marshall School, which was in much better condition, was moved to NW 22-20-15 and given the 1152 number. In 1949 Mountain Eve School was moved to SE 17-20-15, and closed in 1962. |
