Public school in Snowflake, Arizona, United States
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Snowflake High School is one of the oldest schools in Arizona. It was founded in the late 19th century for the education of Snowflake's youth. In 1888 the Snowflake Stake Academy was established to provide education beyond the 8th grade for all who cared to attend. It was established by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as part of its Church Educational System. In 1924, the Snowflake Union High School District was created and the Stake Academy was closed.[3]
