The citizens of Watson built a one room schoolhouse of about 20 x 25 feet. The room was built of cypress from trees of the Amite River swamps and boasted one front door and six open windows. This public school was open three months of the year: June, July, and August. [http://liveoakhs.lpsb.org/Links/School%20History/School%20History.htm]
