D. Crisp, d. H. Davis, lee cloud and one or two MORE MEN. BECAUSE OF THE GREAT INTEREST AND LEADING PART PLAYED BY MR. DAVIS, PEOPLE IN THE COMMUNITY DECIDED TO NAME THE SCHOOL AFTER HIM. CARPENTERS WERE STILL WORKING WHEN THE SCHOOL OPENED ITS DOORS IN 1936, THERE WERE ONLY TWO ROOMS COMPLETED, BUT IT WAS NOT LONG UNTIL THE OTHER TWO WERE FINISHED AND A THIRD TEACHER WAS ADDED. THE FACULTY WERE PRINCIPAL, G. C. AUSTIN AND MRS. C.G. AUSTIN, WHO BEGAN THE SCHOOL.THENTHE THIRD TEACHER WAS MRS. ALTON MICHAELS. FOR THE FIRST TERM THE SCHOOL LASTED TEN MONTHS. MUCH UNSELFISH INTEREST WAS DISPLAYED AND MUCH TIME AND MONEY WAS GIVEN BY MANY FOR THE FUR- THERANCE OF THE SCHOOL. MR. P. T. BALLARD GAVE FOUR ACRES OF LAND ON WHICH TO BUILD THE SCHOOL. MR. DAVIS WAS ABLE TO COORDINATE THE WORK OF VARI- OUS ONES WHO WERE PERHAPS JUST AS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SUCCESS OF GETTING THE SCHOOL STARTED. NO DOUBT MR. J. D. CRISP WAS ONE OF THE BEST IN HELP- ING MR. DAVIS COMPLETE THE WORK ON THE SCHOOL. THE BUILDING WAS CONSTRUCTED OF NATIVE STONE AND WAS COMPLETED WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE AUDI- TORIUM WHEN IT BURNED DOWN IN THE WINTER OF 1947. During the next term school was held in the barr- acks WHOSE MATERIAL CAME FROM FORT OGLETHORPE. IN THE SUMMER OF 1948 WORK BEGAN ON THE NEW BUILDING AND IT WAS NEARLY ENOUGH COMPLETED FOR SCHOOL TO QPEN IN THE FALL OF 1948.
