The first organizational meeting was held on June 27, 1927. J. Westburg, W. Allgrove and Sydney Cooper were elected Trustees of the proposed district. Everton School District No. 4715 was officially organized July 21, 1927.
The school was administered by three elected trustees, one of whom served as chairman, and a secretary-treasurer.
