1893 Dungeness School House
The Dungeness area, in the early days, was a thriving community and early settlers saw the need for a school. At a May 10, 1892 meeting, votes were cast in favor of bonding the Dungeness District for $3000 to buy land, clear and fence it, and build and furnish a two-story school.
The Dungeness School opened on February 27, 1893 with 73 pupils ranging in age from 5 to 20 years old. The teacher received $75 a month for a four month term, ending June 30. Living quarters were provided on the second floor. Classes were large and books and supplies not easy to get. School Board minutes of April 8, 1895, show a motion was passed to buy the school a bottle of ink.
