Book Title: History Of Butte County

SCHOOLS IN MOUNTAIN SPRING TOWNSHIP.

    While the entire township yet constituted one school district, the first
school was at Enterprise, taught in 1863 by Miss Clara Ford. December 29, 1863,
the Mooretown district was formed, embracing all the northeastern part of the
township. May 7, 1868, another district still beyond Mooretown was formed, and
called Lumpkin district. This last continued for three years, but for lack of
children to maintain the school, lapsed by operation of the law. At Enterprise
and at Mooretown very excellent school-houses have been built, and furnished
with the best patent desks. The schools have been taught almost entirely by
young lady teachers.
