PRESENTATION OUTLINE
History of CVHS
- In 1881, during the transcontinental rail project public schooling began
- During the 1880's the population increased.
- The new CVHS opened in 1956 with much improvement
Educational pioneering began in the Valley soon after 1881, when the Northern Pacific Railroad laid tracts through the area as part of transcontinental rail project. Due to the railroad, the population rapidly increased during the 1880s, and the Valley community began building schools for its children. By the 1890s, numerous elementary school districts operated in the Spokane Valley: Saltese, Quinnamosa, Trent, Liberty Lake, Greenacres, Lone Fir, Mica, and Spokane Bridge. The school districts contained only one school each, usually a frame structure with one or two rooms.
