In May 1909, Milton voters approved a special tax for a school. R. L. Dixon, C. B. Newman, F. B. Jones, J. J. Lipscomb, and E. R. Burch were elected trustees. The old brick building formerly a female academy was repaired for use by the newly authorized school. The first term of the new school ended in April 1910, after what was described as a prosperous year, with full attendance.
