The communities of Eagar and Springerville are
located adjacent to one another in a beautiful mountain valley of
central eastern Arizona. Surrounded on all sides by hills
and the White Mountains. Valley Redondo (as named by the
first Spanish settlers) or Round Valley rests at an
elevation of 7000 feet. Here cool summers offer boating on more than
two dozen crisp mountain lakes, horseback riding beneath
whispering pines, fishing in sparkling streams,
and some of the worlds best hunting. And
winter is a wonderland of alpine and cross-country skiing,
snowmobiling, and ice fishing. Campgrounds abound here in
two national forests and surrounding areas, or enjoy the
hospitality of the mountain communities of Eagar and
Springerville. Arizona's High Country is a summer retreat
and a winter ski haven. It's an area where spring thaws
produce acres of wildflowers in the mountain meadows, and
where autumn brings a riot of colors with the changing
leaves. Elk, deer, bears, and even mountain lions roam the forests here.
Beavers build dams on rushing brooks, and trout fill the
streams.
The first official school in
Springerville was opened in 1880 with the first school in
Eagar not opening until 1896. The schools were consolidated
in 1969.
