History Book – On Sale Now!
We are very proud to announce the completion of the Lexington School District One?s history book. Looking Toward the Future Through a Window to the Past, A History of Lexington County (SC) School District One is an informative, entertaining, and often fascinating look at our district through the years. The wonderful photographs used in the book go back as far as the early 1900s. The book chronicles ?The struggles of its past, express pride in its present accomplishments, and provide a glimpse into its 'future aspirations.??
This history book has been 10 years in the making and we want to thank all of those who contributed to the book in the form of documents, photographs, and personal accounts during interviews. We can truly be proud of our accomplishments as a school district who takes pride in the kind of instruction that has been offered to the area that encompasses Lexington County School District One and its children, and will continue to make education a priority. It is exciting to see where we have been and look forward to the vision of the future of our young people.
