Another early school district was Parkland #268, built east of Jumping Deer Creek. The decision to establish the district was made in 1893 under the North West Territories government. The school, built of logs, carried the stamp "Parkland S.D. # 268 NWT" until it closed in 1960. Mr. Ball, the first teacher, later became the minister of education. A second school was built west of the creek and carried the same number. The early registers are not available, but later registers indicate irregular attendance. The building sold for $250 when the Cupar School Unit was formed.
