HISTORY OF THE BUILDING Maryville realized the necessity of a school and consequently established the first one in 1847. In that year school convened in the old log building used as a courthouse. In l857 school was held in a building in the north part of town. The second building in l867 had only four rooms and the original cost of construction was S7,000. Additions at different times raised the value of the building to 318,000 and it then contained only eight rooms. It was located on the same plot as our Washington building. The third building was erected in l885. There were twelve rooms then, six being used for the high school. The cost of construction was S45,000. In meeting the demand for more room, three ward schools were built in l892. The fourth building was constructed in l908. It was used by both the grade and high schools. A Remodeling of that institution took place in l92l at a cost of S75,000. This is the building we now enjoy. Dr. J. L. Lawing---Superintendent of Schools.
