The Capreol High School was completed in November of 1926. By August of 1935, the Department of Education changed the school's status to that of a full high school. This meant that the students could receive all five grades of high school in Capreol. With the coming of World War II, many young men were trading school books for rifles as they enlisted in the armed forces. This was an especially difficult time for both students and teachers as they were left hoping for their classmates' safe return. Over the years, class sizes began to increase and eventually, in the 1950's, additional classes were being held in the basement of the school to accommodate all of the students. The lack of adequate classroom space became a concern to the town and eventually, the Department of Education ordered that four additional classrooms be added to the school. In 1950, a new Commercial Department was implemented in the school. The school however closed in 1997.Collection
