In 1883, Andrew Crockett, one of the earliest settlers, donated part of his land, located on the west prong of the Medina River, to build a school for local children. It was the first public structure built in the area. The one room clapboard schoolhouse was christened the “Crockett School” and served 19 children during the first year. Submitted by: Erik Rabe
