We owe many thanks to the teachers of this school and the many other country school teachers that made a difference in the lives of the then young people who went on to make great and outstanding citizens. - GEORGE RICE

By George Rice

In the accompanying picture, Bobby D. Loy stands in front of the Yellowhammer School House which has long been closed and reminiscence of the early days of his life, when he walked through the woods in a well worn path to start his first years of education.

One of the unique things that Calvin Aaron shares about that school building is that it still has the original paint and it still shines as if it was almost a new paint job. No ones seem to understand why the paint remains so intact.

Some of the dedicated teachers that gave their time and love to the school are ,as shared by Aileen Aaron, Coolidge Grant, Norene Rosenbaum, Stanley Rosenbaum, Violet Rosenbaum, Irene Reece, Wilma Marshall, Welcome Hammond, Noah Loy, Virgil Bryant, Joe Morgan, McIva Hale, Allene Aaron.
