Lovejoy school was created in 1917 by the consolidation of Forest Grove and Lick Springs Schools. It was named for Mrs. J.L. Lovejoy (d. 1939), a local clubwoman who promoted many educational causes for the area. Grades 1 through 9 were taught here in the Little Red Schoolhouse, which was built in 1917 and contained 4 classrooms. Lovejoy school experienced an influx of new students into its rural district in the 1960s, and later expanded its facilities to accommodate the increased enrollment. (1983)
