Note by C. Don Walls on the original gift form: "Victor Elementary School was built in 1905 for the children living in the Victor mill village. In 1923 the school burned and the feeling was that the cause was due to a faulty furnace. Woodrow Phillips who lives on 18th St. said that he was in the 1st grade when the school burned. The principal was Miss Frances Wideman. There were grades 1-7. He also said that the back of the school was located in the back yard of the house where he now lives." - Date
