Description
The Everton School is a Municipal Heritage Property situated on one hectare of land in the Rural Municipality of Barrier Valley No. 397. The designation applies to a one-room schoolhouse surrounded by landscaped grounds.
Valeur patrimoniale
The heritage value of the Everton School resides in its association with the establishment of education in the Everton district northwest of the community of Archerwill. The first Everton School was built in 1927 southwest of the current school. The need quickly grew for a larger building, resulting in the construction of the current school in 1933. The interior of the school remained unfinished until rate payers raised enough money to plaster and finish it in 1942. In 1959 the Everton School District was dissolved, pupils were transferred to Archerwill, and Everton closed its doors.
The heritage value of the property also lies in its architecture and fixtures. Typical of many one room schools built during the interwar period, Everton School boasts a hip roof and large windows placed on one side of the building. The building also retains several interior elements from when the school was in operation, including chalkboards, piano and tongue-and-groove wainscoting. The school remains on its original location and is still surrounded by many of the original spruce trees planted in 1942, making it a landmark in the community.
