The Braselton School Bell

Education
12
Originally located in the bell tower of Braselton High School, the bell was commissioned by Senator Isaac Frank Duncan for all students from 1920 until 1957. The school was built by the founders of the Town of Braselton, and when it closed in 1957, the bell was returned to Senator Duncan’s family. It was later donated to the Town by the children of Green and May Braselton, who were the Senator’s grandchildren. The restored school bell became a symbol of pride for Braselton, where generations heard its sound for school and community events, and it was rededicated by the Mayor and Council in 2004.
