🏫 A Walk Down Tifton’s School Days! 📚✨
Before it was Annie Belle Clark Elementary School and long before it became the home of the Tift County Board of Education, this charming brick building on West 12th Street began its story as Tifton Junior High School in 1927! ❤️
But the story of Tifton’s schools goes back even further!
🏛️ In 1906, a brick school building opened as Tifton High School. As the community grew, a new high school building opened on Tift Avenue in 1917. That beautiful, columned building welcomed generations of students before the high school eventually moved again.
In 1943, the earlier school became known as Annie Belle Clark School, honoring a beloved longtime educator. Then, in 1962, Annie Belle Clark School moved into the former junior high building on West 12th Street, while the junior high moved to the former high school building on Tift Avenue.
Today, the West 12th Street building has a new chapter as the home of the Tift County Board of Education, while the former high school on Tift Avenue continues to serve the community as an administrative building.
From school bells and classroom lessons to generations of memories, these historic buildings have played an important role in shaping Tifton! 💛
📸 Swipe through the photos and take a little trip back in time! Do you remember attending either school, or do you have stories about these historic buildings? We’d love to hear them!
