Avery one-room school was established April 4, 1886. School was in session from March to December due to winter snows that kept the highway closed.

Hazel Fischer taught here from July 1916 to March 1941. Ms Fischer took all the students to San Francisco World's Fair in 1939. She was also known to take them swimming for their physical education.

The school closed in March 1941.

When the present highway was constructed and the timber industry grew, a new school was built in White Pines.
