History of Rogers District Number 4
Have you ever heard of Catclaw,
And of old Jim
Ned?
They've stood in Taylor County
Since Moses was a lad.
But after a while these little schools
Wouldn't hold many
"chicks"
That came from over on the creek,
And over in "the sticks"
So after much debating
And consulting county rule,
The two
districts consolidated
And built a brand new school.
It stands upon the hillside,
And is seen from far and
near:
They call the school-house Rogers
For an honored pioneer.
May Rogers grow and prosper;
May her children ever
be
Loyal and devoted
To this good
community.
-A.G.M.
