History of the School HE Kliddleburg High School had its real beginning in 1903 when the schools of the lliddleburg township were consoli- dated as a high school with Klrs. Hattie F. Plummer as Prin- cipal. The school grew rapidly in scholarship and in number of students during the seven years' that llrs. Plummer was in charge, and in 1909 Garland Rowland, Thad Parrish. and Aliene lViggins were the first graduates. Lvnder the Smith-Hughes Act Vance County was allowed Federal aid in establishing the departments of Agriculture and Home Economics in one of the schools of the County. After other schools failed to make the necessary sacrifice, lliddleburg carried the vote to establish the de- partments in this school and in IQI5 the institution was placed on the lists of Farm Life Schools. About twenty-three acres of land were pur- chased and a handsome dormitory was constructed. lliddleburg has been the leading school ot the county, having drawn scores of pupils from this and adjoining territory. There have been in all about one hundred graduates. lluch of the growth and progress has been due to the keen interest of the people in the community and especially to the untiring efforts of Klr. R. L. Bennett, who has been Chairman of the local Board of Education for about twenty years, and to llr. -I. E. Holloway and llr. XV. T. Rowland, other members of the Board. 9
