Photograph of Vancouver Heights Public School Division 3 class standing on the steps of the school, and spilling out onto the ground in front with their teacher Miss Mary Anne Crossan. When this school opened in January 1912, 53 students ranging in ages from 6 to 16 were all enrolled under Mary Anne Crossan. As the school population was booming, a decision was made to build a second building made of brick on the site to ease in overcrowding - the brick building is now named Gilmore Community School, and this wooden building no longer exists.
