MORRIS
SCHOOL
Morris
School was
located in Falls County, and built on property donated by the Morris
family. This
school was also known as "Long Branch" school, because of a creek
branch that ran through the property. At some point it joined with the
Shields
and Beulah schools to become part of the Hoolia School District #9.
Morris
School consisted of grades 1 through 7. The school served students in
the area
until sometime after the Bruceville-Eddy rural consolidated school
district was
formed, after which the students, who had formerly attended Morris
School,
began attending the Bruceville-Eddy consolidated school in nearby Eddy.
Today
there is nothing left to indicate where the school once stood.
