 The
one-room frame building was located 1.5 miles west of Sandy Springs
where one teacher taught grades one through seven. The district
was bounded on the west by Cooke County; north by Brush Creek; on the
south by Sandy Creek; and on the east by Munger School District.
The land
in the T . Toby Survey No. 1244 was
donated by H. C. (Henry Calaway) Green. This school was
called
"Pleasant View". The first school building burned
in 1930 when Clarabell Riddle was teaching the school.
Members of the school board were Fred (Frederick Newberry) Henry, Thomas M. Stubblefield and H. C. (Henry Calaway) Green. After the Pleasant View school building burned, the students assembled in a nearby church which was used for the Pull Off School until it also burned in 1932. After the church burned, Pull Off School was consolidated with Sandy Springs School. 2006  All
that remains of the Pull Off School is signs of its base now overgrown
with trees and in the memories of people like Lorene Goldston Tamplen
Shelton, d/o Herman
Goldston, who is standing at the place where the school once
stood.
