Independent School District 95 was organized in 1898 near its current location.

In 1904 a four room building was erected, employing three teachers. In the winter of 1909-1910, this building was destroyed by fire.(See bottom of page for original 1909 building, and its replacement.)

Soon after, plans were made to build a new wooden-structured school. In 1917, plans were drafted for a brick and tile addition to the building and to brick and tile veneer the old building. This building stood until its demolition in August 1997.

In 1939, the gymnasium was built.

In 1955, the school was expanded, providing expansion of the gym, new office space, elementary class rooms, industrial arts area, and the home economics room.

In 1972, another expansion included the current lunch room, library, music room, vocational agriculture rooms and shop, and kindergarten class rooms. This addition replaced what was known as the old "Sheep Shed", which was built in 1948 for the 5th and 6th grades.

In 1997, history was inveiled during demolition when the brick veneer of the oldest building was removed, revealing the wooden siding of the original 1917 structure.
The first graduating class was in 1923. The last graduating class was in 1989 as the high school consolidated with Tracy, MN. The school currently consists of Kindergarten through 8th grade.
