The Eveleth Manual Training School was the first vocational school in the U.S. state of Minnesota, built in the city of Eveleth in 1914. It was a publicly funded school founded to prepare workers for the increasing mechanization of the local mining industry. The school offered a two-year program for high school and adult males. Initial courses covered sheet metal work, forging, and engine repair. Within a few years classes had expanded to cover woodworking, cabinetry, plumbing, printing, mechanical drafting, and electrical work. In the 1960s and 1970s, the building was used by the Eveleth Independent School District as the "Industrial Arts Building" for 9th through 12th grade students, teaching the skills already noted.
