Previous to 1924 there were numerous small schools scattered throughout this com- munity. In 1924, however, broadminded men saw the need of a consolidated school. By spring of that year a building consisting of six rooms and an auditorium was completed. Mr.Daws was principal. By the summer of 1925 additional rooms were built, both downstairs and upstairs. There were approximately 300 students with Mr. Poe as principal that year. In May of 1926 the first graduation exercises took place. In 1936 a residence for the teachers was constructed. Later a Modern Home Econo- mics Department, an Agriculture Department, a gymnasium, and a cannery were added. At pre- sent Oak Hill School has some of the most modern buildings and courses. -if 3 ilk-
