[edit] History
General Brock Elementary is made up of three buildings. The oldest, completed in 1908, a wood frame structure had students from grade 1 to grade 8 in its 8 classrooms. Originally named "Mountain View" but 3 years later it was renamed Brock. A second wood frame building was built in 1921 to hold to accelerating school population and another addition in 1923. In 1955 a third building made of concrete block was added. Notable alumni include Jimmy Pattison and Red Robinson.[3]
