Mason County once housed two academies led by a principal at each school. Advanced students prepared younger pupils, with enrollment sometimes exceeding 100 in winter. Graduates hailed from William Reed, Princeton, or Cambridge and many pursued the ministry. Classes used slates, basic readers, and quill pens. punishments were harsh, including dunce caps and pond isolation. Private select schools emerged, funded by a few families, with John Maetch teaching near the Chevi Jet garage site in Point Pleasant.
