School Districts with no High Schools

There are quite a few districts in Texas with no High Schools. I was wondering how many of them played football at the junior high level?
I know of the following:
Bluff Dale
Coupland
Damon
Driscoll
Gause
Malone
McDade
Morgan Mill
Olfen
Westphalia
There is also a league of flag football:
Ezzell
Matagorda
Meyersville
Sweet Home
Vysehrad
Westhoff

What about these?
Devers
Dew
Divide
Doss
Etoile
Excelsior
Garner
Harts Bluff
Hallsburg
Hubbard (In Bowie County)
Hunt
Kenedy County Wide
La Gloria
Leary
Malta
Montague
Murchison
Nursery
Palo Pinto
Pawnee
Pringle-Morse
Ramirez
Red Lick
Ricardo
Sivells Bend
Spring Creek
Texhoma
Wildorado
Winfield
 
Garner has a JH, but does not play football.
Palo Pinto does not have a JH. Stops at 6th grade. (Edit: some Palo Pinto boys do play six man, they go to Gordon, others play 11-man at either Santo or Mineral Wells, and some play basketball at Graford). I believe it is an open district, and wherever the child attends first in 7th grade is their school of record. (If a kid goes to MW his 7th grade year, but Gordon his 8th grade year, he is considered a transfer at Gordon, but if he starts 7th grade in Gordon, he is NOT considered a transfer. I think that is how it works, I could be wrong.)
Three Way. I'm not sure what they play besides track. I know they run track.
 
My grandmother was a teacher at La Gloria for many years. It was K-8th when she was there, now it's K-6th. She said they played 11-man junior high football throughout the years she taught. She isn't sure if they currently play any type of organized football.

Interesting topic for sure.
 
Down in South Texas, Pawnee ISD (Bee County) is a PK-8 district. Got a call from a friend recently and they are thinking about 6 man football.

I show Bluff Dale, Morgan Mill, Westphalia, Olfen, Damon, Coupland and McDade either now or recently had 6 man programs.

Kenedy County Wide district is only PK-6. My guess those kids go to middle school in Kingsville, Rivera, or the Santa Gertrudis district (which is the King Ranch, which comprises a good part of Kenedy County.)

I noticed that the calendar on the Malone ISD web site showed JH games for Penelope, so this could be a PK-6 district as well. Several of these are PK-6 schools only (I wish they would identify on their website the schools where their students move on to for middle or high schools).

Divide is in Kerr County, Doss is in Gillespie County and each have fewer than 30 students (PK-8). Nursery is in Victoria County and may only be PK-5 (it's just at the edge of Victoria on Hwy. 87; driven through it lots of times).

The website calendar for LaGloria ISD shows girls vb and boys fb games vs. Sarita (Kenedy County Wide's school) on Nov. 2nd, but my guess it's probably a flag football game.

Checked the list ... so far, no new 6 man programs.
