In 1912, the name Lebanon State School was changed to our present accredited Lebanon High School. On May 29, 1939, the school building, with the exception of the east wing housing the library and five classrooms, was destroyed by fire. Work on the school plant was begun in the following January. In September, 1940, the Lebanon student body moved into a modern, luxuriously equipped school building. A survey of the history of the school through the years reveals marked improve- ment from year to year. Statistics show a steadily growing enrollment. In 1919, there were nine students graduated, in comparison with seventy-three in 1954. The curriculum was expanded to meet the demands of an increased enrollment. Lebanon High School continues to serve the youth of Lebanon, Elk Garden, and Moccasin District in Russell County, Virginia. i i —

Lebanon, Virginia and its surrounding community is an ideal place in which to live. The town and county offer variety at its best, not only in scenery but in rich farming country with its beautiful blue grass in abundance. Here nature out does herself and with a lavish hand places before her guests the choicest of her many won- ders. In addition to its unexcelled climate, rugged and picturesque mountain ranges, and an amazing variety of wild life are its fine schools, its churches, its wonderful homes and business establishments. It can always be said that the citizenship of Russell County has been interested in the education of its youth. The first facilities for education in Lebanon have led to the great development of our own Lebanon High School. Just prior to 1850, there was a Male Academy established in Lebanon, and on March 10, 1851, an allied Female Academy was organized. These, however, were not on the present campus. Later, in 1893, Russell College, an institution originally built for the education of young ladies, was established and housed in the former residence of the Carrol family. The Carrols have since been known for contributing much to the education of Russell County’s children. Russell College continued to exist until 1909, when it was converted into the Ninth District Agricultural High School, which later was known as Lebanon State School. — 10 —
