Original Helix Elementary School

This building, now a private residence, was the first Helix Elementary School. Records indicate that the first pioneer school house was built in 1880 behind this building. It was replaced by this structure in 1889. It has also been used for church services and literary and debating groups. During wintertime, community meetings were also held in this building. After the new elementary school was built in 1915, the upper story of this school was converted to a gymnasium.It was later used to house teachers.

The building is now a private residence.
