Been driving by this since 1980 when I first came here. This time I decided to figure out what it was: an old school house. Pretty fancy I would say. I couldn't find any pictures of what it used to look like. A former pupil thinks it closed around 1948. Another person said it was used for cattle later as is evidenced by the corrals.
Though the building itself is quite large, Humphrey was never a bustling town like many of its predecessors, with a population hovering around 25 for much of its existence. This schoolhouse was closed in the 40s, after which many students were bused to Spencer for school. Spencer's old schoolhouse is now gone completely, however.
