History of West Plains High School The iirst school in Howell county was ln West Plains near the present site of the Academy of our Lady of the Ozarks. lt was only a small log house and was at that time the only school and church in this section. The flrst teacher as near as can be learned was Mrs. Lydia J. Hines. After a short time this school was abandoned and a building se- cured near the Cumberland -Rrasbyterian church. The building still stands. In 1880 the Old Central school was er- ected and four years later was enlarged to its present size. In 1888 the East and North Wards were added and in 1892 the Vilest Ward was built. Continuing to grow, the school system was further enlarged in 1904 when our present High school was built. This High School rapfdly grew and increased in standing until now we have been on the State's list of ac- credited schools for eight years and are now recognized by the Central College Union. This year the board decided that as the old Central was inadequate and unsafe, a new school must be erected. The building is now being built and will be modern in all its details. The addition of this building will give West Plains the most complete school system in South Missouri and with two large complete modern buildings, and three smaller yet efficient ward schools, we may well be proud of our town YELL.
