The first school in Pollock was established in 1893-1894, when the Rev. Frank Brian, a minister and state senator, was hired by students' parents as the first instructor. Located near the business district, the first school building was later replaced by a two-story frame building across from the present school. In 1902, the Grant Parish School Board established a coed public high school and college there, enrolling 415 students, including some from other states. A.W. Stewart was the first president of the board of trustees, and J.N. Warner was the school's first principal. The three-year curriculum included Advanced Geography, Physics, Nineteenth Century Literature, and Caesar (Latin). James Riley De Moss, who served as principal in 1912, was instrumental in getting Pollock onto the state's accredited list. In 1956, Pollock became the first school in Grant Parish to be accredited by the Southern Association of Secondary Schools. In 1971, Pollock High School became a junior high school, and in 1978, Pollock Junior High School became Pollock Elementary School.
