    Hext school, or at least the wall surrounding the school is a WPA project. I have pictures of the WPA “Wall” and the school (what’s left of it) itself.

    The school in Hext was built as part of the WPA project. I wrote a story on the building last year and as of today (May 2021) it looks like the school was recently burned down. Maybe it was for safety reasons, because when I last visited it was badly falling apart.

        I have lots of pictures of Hext school from 2021 prior to it burning down.
