Description: Mission Valley School. German settlers established the Mission Valley community, named for an earlier Spanish mission, in the mid-1840s. Area families educated their children in their homes before brothers Karl and Julius Brehmer donated land for the first community school in 1870. Trustees built a frame schoolhouse, and in 1884 a larger limestone school was built on land acquired from Friedrich and Emilie Heidrich; the frame school then became a teacherage. New Braunfels Independent School District annexed Mission Valley in 1952. Since that time this site, which includes the historic frame and stone schoolhouses, stone cisterns and other features, has served as a community center.
