      <marmot:placeNotes>A rock school building, often called the Rock School, built seventeen miles north of the town of Hayden in 1916. It was constructed by homesteaders in the area, many of whom later moved to Hayden. According to the Steamboat Pilot, at least twenty families homesteaded within 10 miles of the school at that time (&#x201C;Rock School headed for fame&#x201D;, January 31, 2009). According to George Watts, an early Hayden resident, the school district was founded in order to bring single women to the area (Watts was known for telling tall tales).</marmot:placeNotes>
