Ravinia's first school was established in October 1910, when the town was one year old, with 34 pupils enrolled. In 1913, voters approved construction of a four-room brick school costing $7,500, and it opened in February 1914. That building burned to the ground on December 21, 1916, and the school year was completed in various buildings in town. On April 12, 1917, an election unanimously consolidated Ravinia and Plain Center Townships, and a new three-story brick school costing $50,000 was built, with buses purchased to transport rural students. In 1918, Highland District No. 5 and White Swan Townships were voted into the Ravinia Consolidated District, which had an enrollment of over 200 students. A school paper, "Our Consolidated School", Vote No! was printed in June 1918 and later renamed the Ainivar, and the school annual was called "Bruian." The first high school class, consisting of two students, graduated in 1919. The school operated from 1917 to 1967, when reorganization dissolved the district, and during that period 560 students graduated, with many more attending but not graduating because of the closing.
