In 1968, the public school of nearby [[Colony, Oklahoma|Colony]] merged with the Corn public schools, forming the Washita Heights School District. On April 23, 2010, a referendum was held asking for voter approval to disband the increasingly small school district of Washita Heights, along with its school in Corn, due to the lack of students within the district and insufficient funding.<ref>{{cite web|last1=Rolland|first1=Megan|title=Washita Heights community faces loss of schools|url=http://newsok.com/article/3446368|website=News OK|publisher=newsok.com|accessdate=May 11, 2016|date=March 14, 2010}}</ref>  The dissolution was approved and the nearby Cordell schools annexed the Washita Heights district.{{Citation needed|date=May 2016}}
