Designed by the architectural firm of Smith and Kelly of Galveston, this building was constructed in 1923 for the high school students of Lyford and surrounding communities. The structure is a reminder of the importance of education of the early residents of Willacy County. Representative of the neo-classical style of school architecture, the building features an entrance marked by a pedimented cornice set above the doorway. (1985)
