Maple School, circa 1907
Order an ImageMaple School was built sometime around 1865 south of Seattle on land donated by Samuel Maple. The original one-room schoolhouse was replaced in 1900 by a much larger wooden building with a tall bell tower. Because the school was located near a railway station named for Henry Van Asselt, some people called the building Van Asselt School, causing no end of confusion for later historians.
This photo of the 1900 Maple School building was taken around 1907, three years before it became part of the Seattle School District.
