The students attending Custer School, 7700 Steilacoom Blvd. S.W., Lakewood, posed for a school picture in front of their one-year-old building in October of 1933. The first Custer School, named after Lesour Custer, was built in the early 1890s on land donated by the Knoxhum family. In 1932, the old school was torn down and this new, two room school house was built. As the Clover Park School District grew, another newer, and bigger Custer school was built in 1953; this 1932 building, also called the "Little Red School House", was not demolished and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.
