Schools…

A one room school located near the jail, took care of the children’s educational needs until 1918, when the school expanded to two teachers. The children of the loggers were taught in a one room school that was moved from logging camp to logging camp by a tractor, pulling it on skids.

In the 1920’s Chiloquin’s elementary and high school districts were formed, and construction began on a school to house both the grade and the high schools. Finished in 1926, the last 2 years of high school were offered for the first time. By 1930 the school had 5 teachers and 66 students. In the 1940’s Chiloquin High School had 9 classrooms, an assembly room and a library. In 1963 the present Jr/Sr high school was constructed, with 18 classrooms, library, gymnasium and administration area. In 1967 registration went over 175 students.

There are 3 schools in the area now, 2 in the town and 1 about 6 miles out of town.

    The Klamath Indian Agency was established in 1868 and served as reservation headquarters until Termination in 1954. Over the years, ownership of the Agency property has changed hands several times and has seen various business attempts, including the Red Baron restaurant, a private hunting club, and served as headquarters for the Klamath Forest Protective Agency for a time. Some of the buildings were moved into the City of Chiloquin.

    Today this historic site is housing students and staff of SAGE Charter School.
