On This Date - Henderson History

On May 13, 1970 Henderson County School System was awarded a $181,122 grant for vocational education for 6th, 7th & 8th grades.

On May 13, 1975, Russell Below, a former Henderson County Superintendent of Schools and City High Principal, was named to head the Henderson City School System. Below said the possibility of a city-county school merger was not going to stop him from accepting the position.


Special thanks to Frieda Dannheiser and Donald Hazelwoood for their History of Henderson County, published 1980.
