One-half mile east of this site stood the former Westover School, which served students in this part of Baylor County from 1910 until 1950. Classes first met in the Church of Christ building in Westover until trustees constructed a frame schoolhouse in 1911. Six years later, that building was replaced by a two-story brick building that held all eleven grades and included seven classrooms, a library, and an auditorium. Enrollment reached 400 students by the 1930s, but after abandonment of the rail line in 1942 and the general movement of people from rural areas after World War II, the student population declined, and the school closed in 1950.
