History
Salvador School was built in 1868 on Big Ranch Road and was named after Salvador Vallejo, a county rancher. Salvador is one of the oldest schools in Napa and was originally a one-room facility with 8-9 students, lit by kerosene lamp and heated with a wood stove. It burned down and was replaced on the same site in 1893. The second Salvador School is today a lovely restored home. In 1922 Salvador, Jefferson and Oak Knoll Schools consolidated and third Salvador was built on the present site off of Highway 29 and Salvador Avenue.
