One of the newer consolidated schools in Breathitt County, where Mrs. Marie R. Turner is county superintendent. She is trying to consolidate all the schools and build them of stone since so many of the mountain schools have been burned down several times. She has been encouraging an activity program emphasizing creative arts and crafts using their native clay, wood and other materials. Breathitt County, Kentucky
