Balsam - early Jackson County school
-
This undated photograph shows Balsam School (in use 1919-1951). The new building shown in this photograph was built in approximately 1940. The four room brick veneer school house was built on a foundation of locally mined olivine. The school boasted two restrooms, four closets, a kitchen for hot lunches, and electric lights. In the fall of 1951 Balsam joined with Addie, Beta, and Willets schools to form Scotts Creek Consolidated Elementary School. The abandoned school became the Balsam Community Center.
