Description

A handwritten caption at the bottom of this photograph identifies it as the 'Almond High'� school building in Swain County, North Carolina. The brick high school building had been completed in the Almond, N.C., community in the mid-1920s. Throughout western North Carolina, improved roads and the use of buses had allowed for the consolidation of smaller schools into larger school buildings. Among the schools to consolidate at Almond were those in the communities in the nearby vicinitiy of Judson, Wesser, and Hewitts. This view of the school features the right side and the back of the building. The photographer's name is unknown.
