Venice School
editVenice school lies on the southern end of the Venice Hills. It was built in 1898, and is the oldest school in Tulare County that is in use. In 1957, the Venice School District was absorbed into the Ivanhoe School District, and the Venice school was closed. It was preserved until 1996, when it was re-opened as a charter school.[2]
