History
This school was opened in 1893 as 1 of 2 Normal Schools in the State. The other one is now the Lewis-Clark State College in Lewiston.
The school granted 2 year diplomas to become teachers for the State’s rapidly growing population. The school survived both the Great Depression and World War II with dwindling enrollment numbers by being creative. Before closing in 1951 they were granting 4 year degrees.
The school was used as the Magic Valley Christian College from 1958-1969. Ownership then passed to the City of Albion who kept up the grounds while researching ways in which the property could be given new life.
In 2007 it was sold for $810,000 to the Mortenson family who refurbished the campus into the Albion Campus Retreat with large group accommodations and events including a Halloween attraction called Haunted Mansions of Albion.
