Welcome to the Witch Creek School building.  The Santa Ysabel school at Witch Creek was built in the 1880's by the Sawday family.  The school operated until 1954 as a one room school with grades one through eight taught by one teacher.  One room schools were built when there was about five school age children within a mile radius of a location.  There were many one room schools in San Diego County.  This building is the last original one room school in San Diego County.  Moved to this location in 1969 from the Witch Creek Valley it is now the home of the Julian Historical Society.
