The Gilmer-Aikin Laws of the Texas State Legislature of 1947 ultimately resulted in consolidation of school districts in order to assure there would be at least a minimum of basic public-schooling throughout Texas. [3] Nebgen consolidated with Stonewall Independent School District in 1949, which is served by the Fredericksburg Independent School District. [2]

The school was added to the National Register of Historic Places on May 6, 2005. [2]
