The Leavelle McCampbell School, a Classical Revival school built by the Graniteville Mill in 1921-22, was designed by noted Augusta architect Willis Irvin (1890-1950) and was called “the finest school in the state” when it was dedicated. An elementary and high school serving Graniteville, Vaucluse, and Warrenville, it was named for Leavelle McCampbell (1879-1946), who was later president of the mill for a brief period in 1924. In 1954 the elementary students were transferred to the new Byrd Elementary School, and the school became a high school, unofficially called Graniteville High School. The Graniteville Mill sold the school and grounds to Aiken County for $124,000 in 1960. It remained a high school until a new Midland Valley High School was built in 1980, and has been Leavelle McCampbell Middle School since.
