The first school in Homer was said to be in 1834, taught by D.C. Baldwin in an abandoned structure close to Lockport East High School (History of Will County, 1878). In the summer of 1835, Abigail Raymond taught a few children in the cow stable close to Bruce and Gougar Roads (History of Will County, 1878). As a matter of fact, by 1878 there were 416 students and eight school districts in the area.
