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.
