In the spring of 1920, a petition for a school was sent to the Dept. of Education by Messrs. Crosbie, Duffey and Hutton. The first school meeting was held at the home of Isaiah Flack, June 15, 1920. It had been advocated that a two-roomed public and high school be built at English's corner. After many meetings, the decision was made that two districts, Pelican Lake School and Grayburn School be formed. Pelican Lake would absorb students for Kipling S. D. west of the dividing line - the road straight north of Caron.

A site for Pelican Lake School was purchased from C. A. Hewlitt at a cost of $100 per acre. Though the Board considered it too high, they decided on buying two acres. Debentures for $4000 to build and equip a one-roomed frame school with basement and furnace were issued.

In 1922, high school students were admitted but the teacher reported that the extra grades were forcing him to neglect the lower grades. A special ratepayer's meeting was called to discuss the problem. "There followed a somewhat animated discussion and no solution or agreement of the problem being arrived at, it was moved the meeting adjourn." The motion was lost. Amendments to amendments were made and it was decided to "continue high school for children resident in our district only. The meeting broke up in disorder."
