Among the rural schools in early Llano County were Lone Grove, Flat Rock, Little Llano, McNutt, and Spice Wood, and these schools also served their communities as gathering places. Located on a major route between Llano and Burnet, Lone Grove grew, and when officials divided the county into districts in 1884, it became District Number Two. The schoolhouse dates to 1910 on a site donated by D.P. Speck and J.L. Templeton. In 1937, Lone Grove became one of two rural schools in the county to offer high school courses. Building additions served the growing population until consolidation with Llano schools in 1947. The building is now used as a gathering and polling place.
