Serving Mine Hill
Families
for over 40 Years
Just up this hillside rest the remains of the former English Camp School. Founded in 1864, the school educated the young of Mine Hill until 1907.

Students in grades 1 through 8 spent 10 months of the year with a dedicated and sometimes strict teacher. After grade 8, children received technical training to prepare them for life ahead. The English Camp School was very important to New Almaden's mining communities for over 40 years.
