Highland Home School

Education
3
A small white frame schoolhouse erected here in the 1890s served families in this rural area until 1929. Initially called Boyd School for D. R. Boyd, on whose land it was built, it later became known as Highland Home School. Children in grades one through seven were taught by one teacher, and the schoolhouse also served as a community gathering place. Like many early rural Texas schools, it closed in 1929 after consolidation with the Waller Independent School District.
