Founded by the German farmers and ranchers who settled this part of Falls County, St. Paul School dates to 1896 when a schoolhouse was built near the St. Paul Church. After school trustees purchased land in 1906 and again in 1910, a three-room schoolhouse was built just west of this site. The school served students through the ninth grade, after which they went to Marlin to complete their high school education. After providing educational and athletic programs to local students for 52 years, St. Paul School consolidated with the Marlin school district in 1948. Part of the water well that once served the school remains on the property as a physical reminder. (2001)
