    The Marshall School Board purchased two acres here in 1903 as the site for this 8-room brick school building designed by prominent architect C. G. Lancaster. Originally called the East Side School it opened to Anglo students in 1905. The school initially offered elementary classes to students in Marshall's expanding eastern sector and for 2 years offered a high school curriculum for students throughout the community. It was renamed School in the early 1920s and continued to serve the community until it was closed by the school district in 1981.
