 Ozark’s first public high school was the Dale County High School. Coming into existence in 1907, this school had about a dozen students in the graduating class. With a bright outlook, the school's continuing growth was slowed because of a fire that destroyed the Ozark High School in 1918. The first yearbook was the 1927 Memoriae; be- cause of the war years and the concurring depres- sion, publication was stopped intil 1938, when the yearbook’s name was changed to the Eagle. The fact that publication was possible in the years 1938 and 1939 was surprising because of the fact that many students had to work during the summer just to pay their regular school fees. Again a decade of war and national strife intervened to stop the publication of a yearbook. Finally in 1949 a new annual was presented to the Dale County students. Another name change, which was the product of a Name Your Annual” contest, resulted in the winning entry by Billie Ray Snell, which was the Eaglet, our cur- rent yearbook. Carroll High became an active high school in 1956, replacing Dale County High School for the Ozark students, and we have had the Eaglet as our yearbook since then. Moving forward in our growth, we positively view our life in motion: past, present, and fu- ture. 4
