Book Title: History Of Butte County

SCHOOLS IN CONCOW TOWNSHIP.

    We have already in the general history noted the setting off of Concow
township from Oregon township as a separate school district; but this action did
not necessarily imply the organization of a school. February 4, 1875, the board
of supervisors again ordered that Concow township be a school district;
whereupon a school was opened and money apportioned to the district by the
superintendent. An excellent school-house was built at a good location two miles
north of Yankee hill, near what is known as Spanishtown. The furniture is of the
best patent desks, and the school has been an excellent one from the beginning.

    RESERVOIR DISTRICT was formed May 13, 1880, and embraces all the northern
part of Concow township from a line two miles north of the Concow school-house.
A very neat school-house has been erected at a good location, near the Mullin
hotel, and in sight of the Spring-valley reservoir, and furnished with the best
style of desks. The school numbers seventeen pupils.
