Built in 1907, Harborton High School had classrooms on the first floor and a meeting room for a fraternal lodge on the second floor. Although it served as a public school offering three years of high school classes, it was privately built and funded by Harborton Council No. 108 of the Junior Order of United Mechanics. It continued as a high school until 1921, when it became an elementary school, and it later closed in 1944 because of declining attendance. The white marble stone below was the original cornerstone located on the right side of the high school.
