East Valley School District was organized in 1886. East Trent School District #63 was the first school district in the Spokane Valley area, it was later developed with the EVSD.
In 1888, the first public school house in the East Valley School District was constructed in the area now known as Otis Orchards. This one-room schoolhouse served the
areas later known as East Farms, Moab and Otis Orchards. The Little White School on the
Hill was built with twenty dollars worth of wood donated by William Pringle and was
officially designate] School District #76 by the territorial legislature. Washington would not
become a state until one year later in 1889.
The more modern "Cobblestone School" (1909–1918) replaced the Little White School on the Hill and boasted its first graduating high school class in 1914.
A new high school wing was added to the Cobblestone School in 1918. Cobblestone School, known for its tall bell tower, shake siding and field stone trim, was allegedly designed by famous local architect Kirtland Cutter. Cutter's other local designs include the Davenport Hotel and many other historic buildings which still stand in the Spokane area.
