The Fodice Community School began in the 1880s and was housed in the local Methodist church until about 1900 when a schoolhouse was built west of the church. Enrollment increased through the years, and in 1938-40 improvements were made to the one-story building through the Works Progress Administration. In 1945 Fodice school was consolidated with the Pennington School District. The population of the town dwindled and in 1960 students from Fodice were transferred to other area schools. The building continues to serve Fodice as a community center. (1997) Incise on base: In Memory of Sabra D. Berry
