Highland Recorder - 17 September 1909

In the Highland Recorder (Monterey, Highland County, Virginia), 17 September 1909, page 1, we find the following advertisement mention concerning a Greenbrier Presbyterial School Military School For Boys, in Lewisburg, West Virginia. I am wondering if this Greenbrier Presbyterial School that was a Military School for Boys is the same Greenbrier school for young ladies in the 1960's? Back in 1909, September 17, H. B. Moore, A.M., was the principal of this military school for boys. The article stated that young men were prepared for any University or Professional school. It goes on to read, "Thorough instruction, Christian influence, Military Discipline home life. New buildings, steam heat, water on every floor, healthful location; no serious sickness in history of school. Up to-date athletics; good football, baseball, and tennis teams." Enrollment increased from 23 to 81 students in two years. Seven teachers in Faculty. Every room taken during past year. Additional barracks for 30 boys and gymnasium under construction.   |  View or Add Comments (0 Comments)   |   Receive updates ( subscribers)  |   Unsubscribe
