The Journal-Record - Bicentennial Edition Thursday, July 1, 1976 Section A, Page 3 HACKLEBURG HELD SCHOOL IN CABIN The first school was held in a little log building of the Congregational Methodist Church. When the Methodist Church was build at Cedar Tree, the school was moved there. School was held there until a building was erected on the BOYD Place, near the present site of the high school and grammar school in 1913. This building was burned in 1921, and classes were taught in the various churches until the building was erected across from J. S. WALKER's residence in 1923. This became the first high school for Hackleburg.
