The Paris Public Schools Historical Marker in Paris, Texas, commemorates the establishment of the public school system in 1884, following early attempts dating back to 1877. Under the leadership of prominent local figures, the system began with three schools, including the Aikin Institute, which later became Aikin High School.

This marker highlights the significant contributions of early educators and administrators, including J.C. Brooks and J.G. Wooten, who played vital roles in the development and expansion of the schools. Over the years, the Paris Public Schools have educated and influenced thousands of students within the community.
