Education

Reverend Robert Hershey Hall walked over this county while serving an eight-church circuit, and his intercession on behalf of many young people who were being denied the opportunity for education led to the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, establishing Cumberland Mountain School in 1921. During its seventeen years of operation, more than 650 young people's lives were enriched. Six historic structures and the campus remain, and the property is listed on the National Register of Historic Places by the United States Department of the Interior.
