Little remains of the old one room schoolhouses built of log, adobe, frame or brick which proliferated across Arizona in the late 1800's.

This fine brick example replaced the wooden school moved across town from the Vulture Gold Mine in 1895 and placed on this land donated by Don Ignacio Garcia, a trustee of School District 9 and a benefactor to the town.

This building was restored in 1984 by Community Bank.

Marker is on North Tegner Street (Arizona Route 93), on the right when traveling north.
