Chase School District #1 was located in the Northeast Quarter of the Northeast Quarter of Section 29, Township 23 North, Range 2 East of Klacking Township, Ogemaw County. The school was established in 1880 and was destroyed by a tornado in 1917. It was rebuilt as the Rosevear School in the Southeast Quarter of the Southeast Quarter of Section 30, Klacking Township, Ogemaw County (Fairview and Clear Lake Road). The Rosevear School was later known as the Cobblestone School. The school property has reverted to State ownership.
