The Idahoe School was located at Montevideo a short distance south of
the present Montevideo Middle School. The date of construction of
the school is unknown but it is shown but not named in Lake's 1885
Atlas of Rockingham County. The Idahoe School closed in 1910 when it
was consolidated into the Pine Knot School (along with Kyger, Three
Springs and Pineville).
