The former Eunola School is one of the last remaining one-room schoolhouses in the Rural Municipality of Edward. It was constructed in 1937 and is a typical example of a standard school design of the era. These humble structures not only provided farm communities with educational opportunities but invariably became symbols for the community's identity.
Eunola School closed its doors to students in 1962, at the height of the school consolidation movement. Since then both the school and grounds have been maintained by the local residents, and the site functions as a community centre and picnic ground.
