On October 3, 1891 the County Commissioners appropriated $240 out of the general fund for the purpose of "establishing and maintaining a public school at the town of Texline". Opened in 1892, it became the first school in Dallam County.

By 1922, school enrollment was up to 248 and construction for a new school was begun. It was located where the tennis court now stands. This building was demolished in 1968.
