La Ballona School began classes for the 1865-66 school year in a wood-frame building as part of the Ballona School District. In its first year, 17 boys and 11 girls were registered in 14 classes. The teacher, Miss Craft from Boston, received $50 a month, including board. The school year lasted seven months so children could work on the ranchos. Established on a portion of Rancho La Ballona, it is the oldest school in what became Culver City and eventually became part of the Culver City Unified School District.
