Pearl School evolved from a log cabin with a puncheon floor and split log benches into a modern plant with a gymnasium, and it furnished its fair share of educated citizens. In its early days it was a one- or two-teacher school, and its first trustees were J.H. Harrison, V.C. Karnes, and Frank Roberts. With a new building in 1907, the faculty increased to three; in 1917, to four; and by 1934 it was a seven-teacher high school. Since the school's consolidation with the Evant District in 1958, this building, memorable for youthful associations, has become the Pearl Community Center and is often visited by ex-students.
