Dunean School, later Dunean Elementary, opened in 1928 with J.H. Anderson as its first principal. Located at the corner of Smith and Blake Streets on land donated by Dunean Mill, it served students from the surrounding Dunean Mill village. Before it opened, students from both the Mills and Dunean Mill villages had attended the consolidated Mills-Dunean School. Dunean Elementary School closed in 1980 and was torn down shortly thereafter.
