Curtisville Civic Center (Curtisville School)

The first school built west of the Au Sable River

In 1884, a one-room log schoolhouse was built at the site now occupied by the Curtisville Civic Center, on land donated by the lumber company of Moore and Tanner. It was the first school built west of the Au Sable River in Curtis Township. Later, the school moved into another larger log building, also built in 1884, on the same site. The logs were eventually covered with clapboard.
