The Glendale School of Reno, Nevada, is a historic schoolhouse that was built in 1864 and served as a school until 1958. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.[1]
It was deemed significant as the first educational institution in the "Truckee Meadows" area, where, in 1857, Charles C. Gates and John F. Stone created a rope ferry across the Truckee River and opened a trading post, leading to further development. It was built by Archie Bryant.[2]
In 1976 the school building was moved to a site near the intersection of S. Virginia St. and Kietzke Lane in Reno,[2] and in 1993 it was moved again, to its current location, part of the Victorian Square development in Sparks.[3]
