Egypt School, from the Encyclopedia Of Arkansas, a school was established in Egypt as early as 1890.

By 1892, classes were being held in a makeshift building.

The first school building for what was known as District 17 was constructed in 1896. At peak enrollment, the school is said to have had approximately 600 students.

In the late 1960s, Egypt, Bono and Cash schools were consolidated into the Westside Consolidated School District. The last class to graduate at Egypt was in 1968.
