In 2016 the Washington County Genealogical Society started the Schools Project. Work is continuing on this project. We have found approximately 296 schools that have existed since the mid 1800’s in the Washington County area. This includes those within the Brenham city limits. We continue to research deeds and other county records to find exact locations and dates of existence. If you have any information about a school, please contact us at
