All that remains of the Flesherton Public School is a pile of brick, charred wood and rubble.

Unfortunately, for the most part, the youth of Flesherton and surrounding areas had no idea this building even existed until it was on fire as the property was set back from the road and the building was heavily covered in trees and brush.
