Administrative history
The first school district was formed to the west of Ksituan in 1930, a district badly cut up by creeks, making the formation of boundaries difficult. The first meeting was held February 15, 1932, and over the next few years, there was wrangling over the site for the school. In the meantime, the western boundary was absorbed by Ksituan School and the northern boundary was served by Yellow Creek School. Finally, in 1945, with the election of Adam Juzwishin, Bill Zyha and Sam Wlad to the school board, arrangements were made with the Spirit River School Division to build a school. The district supplied the lumber for school and teacherage. Classes began January in 1947, with Miss Dorothy Burbee as teacher and 33 students. Teachers who followed were Doris Bilawchuk, Mr. R.B. Hemphill, Mr. N.D.Shmyr, Miss N Bryzgorni, Miss Lakusta, Lillian Bilawchuk, and Helen Kowalchuk. The school was closed in 1956 and the elementary/junior high students bussed to Blueberry Creek while high school students were bussed to Spirit River. The school building was moved to Spirit River and became Margaret Kushneryk's home.
